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."
"The Lope" was on display today at the PNA Championships meet in Federal Way. Someone did a ridiculously fast 200 Free using it.. in the 1:45 range if I am not mistaken.
Actually he went 1:40 in the 200 free. And 45 in the 100! His loping stroke seemed effortless and was amazing to watch. Guessing here, but I think his secret weapon is his kick.
