Here is an old one of me swimming. It was taken just after a knee replacement and I was not able to push off the the wall. That pool is 75 feet wide at that point and it took 16 seconds to cross the pool. www.youtube.com/watch
I have posted this before. I am open to critique. I do not like the broken wrist recovery with the left hand.
Chuckie and I will be in Mexico in 3 weeks. Chuckie and I love Mexico.

One thing that I noticed in both videos is that on your starts you are not exploding off the block with your legs. It almost appears that you are falling forward. I would recommend that you work on using your legs to drive you off the block. Also, it looks like your start started with your legs straightening, instead of your arms pulling you forward. Think of your self using the tension in your shoulders and arms to PULL your body forward, THEN you drive your legs straight off the block.
Then again, anyone that does 100 fly is OK in my book as 200 Fly used to be (heavy emphasis on USED to) one of my favorite events.
