Critique on 50m & 100m free

I just swam a 100m free, 50m free, and 50m fly at a short course this past weekend. My wife stuck around to video me in both freestyle events. They're on youtube now. Not sure if they're clear enough but I'd appreciate any critiquing or suggestions for improvement. I'm in lane 4 on both with the yellow cap. The 100 was split 29.46/30.40 for a 59.86 Don't know the 50 split but might try and do that next time. Thanks folks. 50m Free youtube.com/watch 100m Free youtube.com/watch :bouncing:

    Great swims. You have a long powerful stroke. The turn-over on the 100 looked as if you're pacing for a 200 or longer. Go out harder and die like a man. Other than this...the only critique might be on the height of your start. Try for less air time...and become more like a dart. A single hole entry will really help get you moving as you pierce the surface. Your 25 on the 50 should get you into the 57~58 range no problem.
