I have been studying videos of swimmers and find what was once called the "S" stroke has almost disappeard.
I have noticed that flyers use it. But crawl swimmers have modified it so much that it is almost gone.
Has it been replaced completely or was it an optical illusion? Did underwater film show us it did not exist.

Thanks for your responses, I am a little late coming back to answer or reply today. Chuckie and I are baby sitting our grandson. He insists on high 5ing me every few minutes.
When Councilman described it it was a very aggresive huge "S". I was a bent arm swimmer and did not do these major swing out swing in and out again things. Lot's of people interpreted the "S" as moving the hand and forearm position into be in fresh water. Not really grabbing and holding the water.
