Now that I've finally managed to get my 2-beat freestyle kick timing more or less corrected (left leg kicking down on right hand entry, etc.), I'm wondering if the same principle applies to the backstroke kick?
Most backstroke kicking advice I've seen seems to be of the "just kick continuously" variety.
Does it make sense to work on kicking up with the opposite foot at hand entry in backstroke?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Donna, thank you very much for your suggestions about kicking. I will practice more just the kicking. It may be that my legs are not flexible or strong enough.
I also like backstroke very much. I don't know why many people don't.
