Sculling for swimmers is a technique that helps swimmers build strength and improve form. What is the science behind sculling? Sculling is a technique that allows swimmers to “feel the water,” by focusing on the pitch of the hands in the water. This is similar to sculling when rowing. When the paddle is in the water, it drives, stops, and turns the boat. The pitch is what determines where and how fast you go. When swimming, the hand acts like the paddle. Sculling focuses on the pitch of your paddle.
