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

Do you ever do "swimming golf" 50s? Those are the ones where you add your time to the number of strokes you took and try to get the lowest total. Try to do sets of these where you get faster, but don't increase your stroke total. This will ensure that you are increasing your stroke rate but maintaining the good distance per stroke that you already have.
