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.

The start needs work. If you are going to use the track style, you should be into the water fast, not reaching for the rafters. If you want to jump out, try diving over a barrel into a small hole. Your stroke looks OK but slow for a 100. If you were trying to not die on the last 50, why swim the 100? If you want to swim fast, don't be afraid of dying at the end. That way you know you used everything in the race.
