Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to prevent my legs from dropping as I attempt to backstroke? I learned how to swim last year, but I did a lot of faking it by not really using my legs that much. This year I want to do it right so I can't seem to make both my arms and legs move at the same time.

When just kicking on your back stretch the arms over head touch your ears with your shoulders and tip your fingers up just out of the water, the legs should come to the top, I call it the fulcrum effect.
