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.

I like the quote... "people should hear you swimming the backstroke..."
We used a drill to teach kids to hit the water, basically a backstroke windmill as fast as they could. Adding the pinkie first to this thought process really seems to work pretty well.
Thanks, Arthur!
