Arm recovery

Does anyone use the same arm motion in freestyle that is used in butterfly? I can't seem to get the arm motion for free. Some use what looks like a windmill motion, some use a very straight "V" position, some use the fingertip drag motion. Should the shoulders completely rotate? I think my arm entry has a lot to do with my struggles in the free.

  • Yes, I was an elbow dropper too. I spend a lot of time doing drills to try and improve matters. One of the things that causes me problems is that I tend to be a late breather, so my off-side elbow tends to drop more.
