I've just always been told that only freestyle was faster than fly.
This is true. But short course backstroke isn't backstroke at all. It's 15M of dolphin kicking 5 yards of swimming and a flip turn. IMHO, shouldn't be called backstroke anymore.
I never understood while the swimming rules makers gave the same underwater limit for SC and LC swimming.
