I went to an underwater video clinic on 8/5/07. Filming credit goes to Emerald City Multisport which put on the clinic at Samena Pool in Bellevue, WA. They did me a favor and recorded both free and fly instead of just free.
I've uploaded some excerpts to google video, and I'm interested in any critiques. One thing they said is I seem to be creating a lot of bubbles on entry on free.

The biggest problem is to try and do every thing at once. Get the elbows high and the hand close to the water, and don't slap the hand on the water as the hand enters.
Don't slap the water but you don't want to gently place your hand in the water either.
