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.

One thing I noted on your turn, at about the 12 second mark, look at your head position. Your head/face is up and looking at the wall. You really want to prevent this by ensuring that the head tucks and follows the last pulling hand down and thru.
Thanks Matt - I didn't really notice doing that but saw it in the video. It looked like I was high off the wall, so I will work on fixing that in practice.
