Foreward: My 50 was a good time for me, my 200 time I have actually beat in practice from a push. Criticism on my 50, starts and turns would probably be most beneficial to me, but I am interested to get feedback on some race pace video. These videos are from the DAM SCM meet yesterday.
My times are annotated in the video, but here they are for reference.
50: 27.71
200: 33.48/36.18/36.78/33.77 1:09.66/1:10.55 2:20.21

I would agree with Allen:
- your sprint tempo needs to be much higher - the 50 turnover looked more suitable for a 200/500
- you should spend "as little time as possible actually swimming" in SCY/SCM - so longer underwater off the start, and deeper/longer underwater off the turn.
