ideal trim

[jaybombs25]

Anyone have a pic of what "ideal" trim looks like?....just want a reference...i'm really interested in your leg position.. some people have theirs slightly bent.. while I see some swearing by perfectly straight legs. What do you think

Here is a good pic of decent trim.

I am of the knees-bent camp, eliminates silting in delicate environments, and makes for efficient propulsion using a wide variety of kicks.

Leg position can be used to adjust trim. The more bent your knees are, the more "head-down" your attitude will be, as your center of gravity is shifted forward. Vice-versa for straight legs.

I'm of the "feet up" preference because I like to use the frog-kick. Keeps things from getting silted out, too.
