other than turns, what makes someone better at one or the other?

Ok my newbie butt wants to interject something... :o)
I'm still coming to terms with my crawl. I clicked a bit lastnight wen I figured out that b/c of working on streamlining and rolling--I was not thinking about my kicks I was doing rapid little kicks...I felt this going on and though wait a second...there's no power there...so I slowed the pace of the kicks and opened my legs more...I took off and really felt it all come together (it was a "ray of lightthrough the clouds" kind of good). then I had to turn b/c I am at the wall in a 25yrd pool. After the (open/bob) turn it all went wrong and I had to re-click it.
If I didn't have to turn, I would have gone 100 yards, easily, the stop and turn messed my ryhthm and breathing. I can only assume that turns will affect a good crawler even if only a slight bit. No?
Sorry for not being 100% on topic..just thought I'd share that thought though...damn wall:frustrated:
