ok, rip away. Maybe it will be kind of funny if nothing else as I am in a hotel resort pool.

It looks to me like you're doing a thumbs first entry and you're crossing over with your right arm.
A tighter streamline off the walls would help, too. I'm not sure if the loose arms were a safety measure for the kids.
Dang, I have been working for the last couple months on fixing the thumbs first entry. I do wish I could post the older video because then I might get some props on how much progress I have made. It used to be much worse along with swinging arms and an even flatter body. But I guess it doesn't matter because this is where I am at now. But I have been finger tip dragging for over a year and I am very pleasantly surprised with this result as I think I might have pulled it off. Tell me, how does my elbow recovery look?
Cross over - that is an astute observation. Do I need a wider entry outside the shoulder or just focus on a wider pull away from my mid line?
As for the streamline, you are probably right but there was a bench under water at the ends, etc.. Those are my kids making a cameo crossing by.
And yes Steve, there was a full bar right behind me along with the Atlantic Ocean at Myrtle Beach. There was another pool below that I estimated was actually 35 yards long and I could get a decent workout in if I got there by 8 am. But I'm a long way from there now.
