So if it's a "survival" stroke, I'd probably want to use it in a 400 IM since my goal in that event usually is survival.:D
It's not uncommon at a meet to see some of the older swimmers swimming what is essentially inverted breaststroke with an overarm recovery(inverted butterfrog.)
There is a guy who swims in the amymsa league who swims the European Backstroke - double arm recovery over the water with an inverted breaststroke kick.
One of the coolest things about swimming Masters' leagues is that you can see the changes and progressions of the strokes as they were taught and competed all in the same heat/event.
"different strokes for different folks" rings a bell . . . God bless us all for getting from one end to another

I absolutely agree with that!!
