Got a camera in Guam last week to record some fish and stuff. Now that I'm back home I can put it to better use and try to improve my style. Here are several clips, two from yesterday and one from today.
My left hand crosses into my right side and my right hand goes way outside at mid-stroke. Not sure if this is a balance compensation but I havent been able to correct it yet

Interestingly, kicking doesn't really help my time too much -lol.
Today I made tighter, and even 4-beat at times, kicking. It felt better. The best feeling occurs with my legs being dragged just under the surface so indeed the kick is a partial speed brake for me.
I also practiced the OAD but without breathing every stroke and this helped. But most of all I spent about an hour last night in the mirror mimmicing EVF and it felt good today. Hopefully the nect clip might show some good improvement
