Technique Drills

4.    Slow Slide Drill

The slow slide drill entails a slow (to very slow) return to the catch with the intention of over emphasizing relaxation and posture during the recovery. Stroke rates can be lowered to 14-18 strokes per minute. 

The slow slide drill improves slide control, enhancing ratio and rhythm.

Instructor Tip:  Over emphasizing the slowness of the recovery can assist in the perception of control.
