Any old dogs out there trying new tricks? Any younger generation masters swimmers swimming this way?

"In watching the Olympics, we can't help but notice the impact that "lopers" are having in freestyle. While high-rate freestylers and straight-arm freestylers have been getting the most attention this year for the speeds they've achieved, lopers are certainly making a HUGE impact."
I have a feeling loping could be a hard thing to teach and hard to learn.
it might be something swimmers settle into after years of training.
It takes s strong kick & core to lope, but when it falls apart (race fatigue, bad splitting) things get ugly and worse than swimmer's with a balanced free.
A
if I lope when I swim free
Does that give me an Ande-lope?
