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.

KICK. You're focusing so much on your arms that you're forgetting to kick.
Downloading this animation might help as well. It helps visualize the rotation people here are talking about. This program allows you to view the swimmer from various angles and speeds.
