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

dude thats more than a stroke per 25. i'd take it.
Hey Shane,
As far as DPS goes, sure, but I could just kick the entire race if I wanted to maximize my DPS.
I will experiment with it more before I decide if it will work, or if I need to go back to trying to figure out the hip roll.
You have to think, my entire head is in a new position. That can't have zero drag effect. The goal is to go fast, not see how far I can glide underwater :)
Of course, the new head position might be an overall decrease in drag because my shoulders are now a head width narrower and my back is flat instead of arched.
