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

I still need some critique. There's got to be some suggestions, I know because I'm still very slowww:). How slow are you?
- Currently, given a set of 10x100 off 2min, what would your times be?
- What's your current 50meter push time?
- What's your current 50meter kick sprint?
Most important of all. When performing a 100m free style fast but controlled, what's the time and stroke count per 25?
As a modest example, here's my 100m fast but controlled (race pace between 200 and 400m basically). It's 14 strokes, then 16/16/17 (bad touch).

How about yours?
The only little critic I have about your footage at the moment, given the view (Underwater) and the angle (front), you should flex the wrist to point fingers down earlier upon hand entry. For more speed, we'll have to look at the second half of your pulling pathway. This is where most power should be generated. You feedback on stroke count vs speed will tell me a lot about this aspect.
I notice my entire axis rotates on the same plane to the same extent looking at my feet orientation compared to shoulders. Should I twist at the waist in order to lessen lower (hip) rotation with respect to shoulder? My opinion? No.
