  • Any chance you can get somebody else to video you? I could not find one video in your list that adequately showed your stroke, except for the recovery. :dunno: In one of them, all I saw was splashing; I could not see your stroke at all. :notworking: And, the race video was too wide angle; you were tiny to see well. There are several forumites who I am sure would be happy to provide constructive criticism of your stroke, however, they need to see your stroke. Try to get something like this for your video (except for the beginning, when I first got up on the block :blush:): http://youtu.be/PlpUI22zuwc :2cents:
