Breaststroke video

I'm still working on my Breaststroke, and have improved greatly from USMS forum feedback on a video of me several months ago. I have a new one, this time taken underwater. I'm going about 80-85% speed, taken at the end of a long practice. I'm swimming a 1:13-1:14 100YDs, and a :32-:33 50YDs, but have goals of a 1:10 and/or a :30, and think I should be able to get there. I noted that my head raises too soon in the breakout, and I wonder about having too deep of an angle in the pullout. Any and all feedback would be very welcome - I greatly appreciate and try to apply the advice I get here!!

    Observe the master. Just remember that doing the butterfly kick before the pulldown is still considered illegal by USMS rules (so don't do that until the rule changes, if ever): www.youtube.com/watch Damn, I wish I could do 1% of what he does! One thing I noticed with Kitajima is that he has one of the longest glides for 3/4 of a race and still builds a significant lead.
