Hi,
I'm a butterfly beginner and currently having problem with my hips sinking too much when my arms start with the recovery. I posted some videos at my blog (http://blog.grkovic.com/?p=30) Hips sink so much that first downkick barely lifts them above them the water. Sometimes, they don't even come out.
If anybody would have any suggestions, I would appreciate it a lot.
Thanks.

It's a kilo full stroke and 4x200 kick (my 0-arm drill), all done in 3:45 (I was pleased).
I was just curious, do you swim 1 kilo in one go, without breaks?
Thanks for the link to 0-arm butterfly. Who taught you this?
I learnt it myself. As I remember, I started with kickboard held in front with stretched arms and kicking first and second kick. Then I removed kickboard. Lastly, I moved arms next to the body. I think that the breathing moment in this drill could easily go slightly wrong, shifted a little bit late, after the second kick. Do you maybe have underwater footage of yourself doing it? Do you think you bend in hips during second kick?
Thanks a lot solar once again. I really appreciate your advices.
