Backstrokers unite.
We know every detail of the ceilings where we train unless it's the sky which is ever changing.
We SDK every day. It's breath taking.
We go forwards in reverse.
We get to flip over on turns. We gotta stay on our back.
We swim back. We kick back.

OK the words "race" and "backstroke" cannot truly be used together when referring to me...although I just set a PB!
I just thought you'd all be happier in the aqua-noodle section with the other folks that don't like to get their faces wet...:wave:
Mmmm....no, I just like to look at everyone around me. Being a backstroker, as Chris pointed out, is a lot more enjoyable than any other stroke. We do get to see different things as we swim, compared to having our face buried in the water while only looking at the black line.
It takes skill to navigate on one's back.
