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.

The thing that grabbed my attention was where your feet were positioned on the backstroke start -- they're almost at the bottom of the x! How can you get a good push off with your feet way down there? I would move your feet up about a foot. You'll be in a better position to explode, arch your back and get a cleaner entry into the water.
Chris' advise is good. Long blade fins can really help you detect streamlining flaws with the SDK.
