Can someone point to a link that has good description/pix of how to do EVF (early vertical forearm)?
I have recently been changing my "short" distance stroke (for OW races of less than about 75 minutes) to have more EVF and it really seems to be working very well - it blends nicely with the TI portion of my stroke as long as I don't daydream. However, I don't have access to a coach and so I am making it up or just going on impressions at this point. I've seen some of the Olympic swimmers, of course, but they are in a very different category WRT ability than I.
Thanks,
LBJ
L.J., I think "tomtopo" is the person you want. Here is one of his posts:

He has his own videos, and also posts videos of others doing EVF at various times on the fora.

Splash,
Ian Thorpe has an unusual dexterity. I've never seen anything like his stroke on anyone else.
