To quote Gull: What is the right mix of technique and endurance for a Masters athlete (who wants to be competitive, say, at Nationals) with a finite amount of time to train?

Well, Dave, as you might have noticed if you actually read (rather than just reacted to) my post, I wasn't claiming anything was a "fad." I was just referencing GoodSmith's thread and his opinion. Nothing more. So you might answer your own question and educate us all.

read your post, read smith's post, thank you very much.
i think much of what you describe re *** stroke is evolution not fad. wheras some strokes evolve with rule changes, others evolve with technical advances.
i guess to me the word fad implies that the benefits of something will be abandoned after a short period. i don't think that applies to certain examples cited.:2cents:
