I believe the arm recovery may be the most important part of the swim stroke in front crawl. It is to me similar to a 12 volt power inverter converting power to 110 volts. The action above the water is what produces the power of the stroke underwater.
In 1958 I started writing a book titled Power Swimming from the Start I did not complete this book and it is still unfinished and probably will never be finished. It was one of the concepts I had written about.

Strait arm or high elbow are both fine with me. Above water action to me ads to lever action for what goes on underwater. Would the underwater action work better with out the the proper above water action. The synery of tendons and muscles go from the finger tips of one hand to the finger tips of the other hand. Every thing is interconnected.
