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?

I know this is obvious, but no one's else has said it on this thread. The number of SDK will vary inversely with the length of the race. I can do 7-9 pretty routinely off of my back starts, but I'd never make it through a 200 if I tried to do that. I'm going with 5 dolphin kicks on my 100's.
Like Ande says, it would be best to change it up a bit and have someone time you.
