Hi everyone,
I am French man 51 years old and I present you a new underwater stroke named "Atlantis" to swim like and with the Dolphins. This is not a "Dolphin Kick" stroke, because arms are propulsive in the body undulation.
Dolphin Kick is more speed than Atlantis after the starting push, but without this push, Atlantis stroke is more speed.
For example, if you swim a 25m underwater in Olympic swimming pool without push on the wall, Atlantis is the fastest. You can do the test to verify that.
You can see the videos
50m Atlantis in 25m swimming pool (not 25 yards) in 26.80 without training at 30 years old and my size is only 1.70m.
My best time in Olympic pool is 25.21 with Atlantis stroke and 27.30 with front crawl. 20m Dolphin kick for start added to 30m Atlantis for finish in the 50m underwater will permit to swim under 20 seconds.

Yes I know, this is not a classic swimming surface, but you can use in your training for a better hypoxia capacity. A kind of butterfly underwater.
Goodbye
Enjoyed the abstract, thanks. I am mostly glad however that stumbled across this thread earlier. It has been beneficial in allowing me to swim while recovering from shoulder surgery. At 3 months post op I was also able to enjoy swimming over reefs while vacationing. I used a variation hybrid surface/UW Atlantis kick which included front mounted snorkel and board fins.
