***Hurdlers - X country move with a tuck inbetween.
***Rocking horse - this is a modified shallow move. I use it as a traveling move with butterfly arms or breaststroke arms. Bring the knee up and extend it forward as you pull back with the arms. The legs with alternate as you move forward
***Egg Beaters - as if you are treading water. Knees are open and legs move in a circular motion.
