I learned how to swim freestyle two summers ago and I love it! I'd appreciate any swimming tips and feedback. I'd like to improve my form with the aim of swimming faster triathlon distances (1.5 - 4 km). The video below is grainy and watermarked but I'm hoping there's enough there to give a general gist of my current stroke.

To start with - Use a catch up stroke. Hold your extended left hand out front and do not start your pull until the right hand palm touches the back of your left hand. Then hold your right hand extended out front until the left palm touches your right hand on the back of the hand. Make sure you do not cross over underneath the water.
