Which combination best describes your best and worst strokes? If you care to explain, how much disparity is there between your forte and your 4th best stroke?

    Free/back I just can't swim backstroke. It's all thrashing limbs, sinking butt and worst of all....WATER UP THE NOSE. :drown: It's a NIGHTMARE for me. I kid you not. I HATE the stroke. I am actually faster at breaststroke than I am at backstroke. Having said that, I recently bought a noseclip and have been trying to do some back every practice. The noseclip helps but I can't keep my head still and my butt still sinks and my knees pop out of the water. I shall persevere. :)
