Most swimmers finish their stroke like they’re just trying to get their arm out of the way—not like they’re trying to move forward. In this solo episode, I’m diving into a concept almost nobody talks about in freestyle: the feather.
The feather is that subtle but crucial outward motion at the end of your stroke that sets up a smooth recovery and gives you just a little extra propulsion, without blowing up your shoulder. It’s not just for elites. It’s not complicated. But it does take intention.
