Good swimmer may not be symmetric?

I don't know. I'd need an under or overhead view. I noticed he kind of freezes his legs when they're tilted just that one way. I think it's absolutely amazing the way these people swim. Now that I'm really into this sport and I've been immersing myself in water and YouTube videos of swimming for the past month, my appreciation for the beauty and seeming perfection of these elites' strokes and kicks and flips and glides has only grown more than I ever thought it could. As compared to videos of swimmers who have obviously put in years of hard work but who I can just intuitively look at and say, "Wow, this looks wrong, I don't know why, but it just does..", with these guys I can hardly spot the flaws. Forgive me for being so off-topic, but last August during Beijing, I was not a swimmer. As a newbie at all this, I am amazed and wowed. And it's just stunning to think that these guys are going so fast and yet when you look at the pool deck, the guys in suits are not even jogging. They work so hard to push through that water that is not air. It all comes down to knifing the most efficiently and gracefully through galaxies of molecules at a density that poses so much more resistance than air. The rules change in water. The world changes in water. These Olympians change in water. The water changes them.
