I've been enjoying this thread. Last spring I managed my first 100 fly SCY, if slowly. I have been finding that the key for me is to lock my elbows on the stroke, lead with my face (into the water after a breath) and to breathe every other stroke. For me, butterfly has gone from seeming like a battle to becoming much more fluid. My endurance has improved, and I simply enjoy the act of swimming the stroke a great deal more. When done properly, it feels and looks like the most beautiful stroke of the four.
People often talk about swimming the stroke "downhill", which resonates with me. Chest down as the arms sweep over. Vastly more efficient than trying to climb over the water with two arms as your butt sinks. Gruesome.
