Do you agree that the stroke that was the easiest (or first) for you to learn may well not be the stroke that you eventually swim the best? So which stroke was the easiest for you learn? Which do you find easiest to swim to near perfection? I learned breaststroke the first but have never worked on improving it--unlike the other strokes, it doesn't seem to be so complicated. Freestyle seems to have infinite room for improvement?

    I prefer the breaststroke, but I was very surprised how easy it was to learn the backstroke.It took me a lot longer to learn the correct breaststroke technique, but now that I know what to do I feel it takes more effort to swim back.
