Form question

I have a quick form question. I know that are supposed to make an "s" shape underwater with your stroke when swimming free but how deep is the arm supposed to extend underwater? Is it supposed to stay on one plane just below the body or should the arm extend as deep as possible? Thanks

    We have not extended as deep as possible since 1948. The "S" Stroke a great inovation. Some still like to call it the "S" Stroko The "I" stroke is a newer version of the "S" Stroke. When the shoulders roll the arms make an "S" but the "S" seems to be just a straight "I". I like my stroke closer to the body and follow the black line on the bottom of the pool. I am sure you will get many ideas here.
