My preferred stroke is the backstroke. However I seem to have a problem: I cannot seem to do a decent underwater back dolphin off the wall. Can anybodu suggest some drills or ideas?

    Can you dolphin kick on your stomach? If it's just a problem doing it on your back, it may mainly be a mental thing, and just practicing more may help. Try doing sets where you swim 15m dolphin kick on your front, sides and back. If you're having trouble kicking on your stomach as well, then it's a completely different problem. A lot of people here have really improved using a monofin, but there's other drills and things you also try.
