ok so I just got in my Olympus Stylus 1030 SW this Saturday, so I jumped in today for 10 minutes to get some video in. Here it is.
i do take 12-13 per length (SCY) but that surely has more to do with my XL hands and 13US feet than any good technique.
Phdude,
12-13 per 25y is pretty high for someone your size. I would really work some DPS (distance per stroke) and catch-up drills to help you get a better feel for a powerful, gliding stroke. I'm still a work in progress and I'm at 8-9 strokes per 25y when I do DPS drills. Really work those drills and try and stay as long as possible with a smooth powerful stroke.
