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."

In ocean water swims I lope, more pronounced if there are swells. It helps me with rhythm and spotting.
It wasn't taught to me, it just feels better. Once I got over the fact that I changed my stroke to meet the conditions I had much more fun.
I kind of like my lope now.
