Breakout Tips?

Recently, I've been trying to stay under water longer and SDK more. But I notice my breakouts seem to be pretty sub-par on all strokes (especially *** where I practically come to a dead halt). Any tips for better breakouts on the start and turns? Also, on backstroke, when do you begin the transition from SDK-ing to flutter kicking before you surface?

  • Thanks guys. I had forgotten, Allen, that I actually own the GoSwim video that focuses on breaststroke turns and pullouts. Duh. I'll go watch it again and look at George's site too. As to Peter's tip, I totally lied. I checked it at practice this am. I'm doing it correctly for backstroke and wrong for freestyle. But when I put the other hand on top for free, it feels really strange.
