Lately I've been getting into breaststroke and fly, but I can't seem to find any enjoyment in backstroke. With the other strokes I have a real feeling for my body moving in the water, but with backstroke I might as well be running on land.
For those of you who enjoy backstroke, what do you like about it? What am I missing? Where's the fun in backstroke?

There is no fun in backstroke! We only swim it because we want to do the I.M., or if we want to get a suntan up front, or if we are floating along...it is evil to do the backstroke. You get water up your nose, you get your sinuses filled with it, you almost drown. I hate the backstroke...love the *** when I get a chance to rest from my fly or free...billy fanstone
