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.
Yeah, that's the other problem. As if the aerodynamics (or hydrodynamics, if you insist) were not difficult enought to get a grasp on, human physiology has to rear it's ugly head. There's a constant tradeoff between the ideal stroke from an aerodynamic standpoint and the ideal stroke from a biomechanical standpoint.
