This may be controversial but is SDK really mandatory for fast freestyle?
Don't see much of it here, it looks like they wan't to surface ASAP:

I know proponents will link to Phelps' 200 WR, but other than that, I don't see many people exploiting it.
Will we see huge SDK in freestyle at the upcoming Olympics?
I don't fly because of my back, so my SDK in freestyle is minimal. I'd like to think I don't need it.
I'm keen to watch for it in elite freestyle races and it is a mixed bag. Many are fast without a big prolonged SDK.
It looks to me that maybe there is one, maybe two SDK's to extend the streamline an extra body length to get under the incoming wave, but I don't thing the SDK's are there in freestyle for anything other than that. Unless exploiting an exceedingly proficient SDK skill developed from fly and back I think it boils down to personal preference for free.
