Looking for feedback on my stroke from a recent meet. The overall time was 54.33 with splits of 26.12 and 28.21 which is about a second slower than I went at meets last year.
The video quality isn't that good but I'm the swimmer in the center of the screen just below the open lane.

Appreciate any comments.
That's some kick and great splits. I would love to have a 2 sec differential but I don't think I ever have.
The main thing I see is your too far from the wall to turn. You're almost fully extended as your feet hit the wall. This really compromises your thrust off the wall. Your last stroke should send you tumbling over in a tighter ball. Push off on your back. Toes up.
The second thing I noticed was your breathing and overall head position. Not sure which is driving which but try to maintain a stiffer head position. Smaller breathing motions would help.
Good luck.
