My backstroke start is more like a back flop.:( Can anyone suggest how I can get off the wall and into the water more cleanly (is that a word?)?

When the hands leave the grab bars....lock them tight...hand over hand. And throw your head back.
The flow of your entry will become cleaner if you get the head going where the body wants follow. A common reflex is to keep the neck muscles tight...with the chin still tucked towards the chest.
A single hole entry is what you want.
