YouTube - 50m Free Carlisle 16/5/09I swam 2 massive P.B.s at a meet last weekend.
Went 25.38 in 50m SCM Free (from 26.03)
and 56.38(26.78) in 100m SCM Free (from 58.75) :applaud:
The following video is of my 50 swim and I would appreciate some constructive critisism please. (Lane 4)
My start and underwater was good (5sdk) went 13 strokes out, 17 strokes back. Only 1sdk on my turn (and I was actually thinking "oh no, what will Ande think of that!?) Breathed 1 out 2 back. I still feel my stroke is slow. I have really been trying to increase my turnover, working on the straight arm catch we are all talking about now.

I look forward to your comments.
You look extremely powerful. For a 50 I'd work on increasing your turnover rate.
Yes, you could improve your start by making sure the first movement of your hands is forward. You seem to pull back slightly wth your hands before going forward with them.
Great swim, though!
P.S. reaction times are measured as the time between when the start is signalled (i.e., the beep or flash) and when your feet leave the blocks.
