Strokes

So I took some underwater video last weekend, got some snippets of all the strokes. Definitely a lot I see to work on - my catch in all the strokes is pretty weak, dolphin kick on the breaststroke pullout is driving me too deep probably and my recovery in the *** is probably to dive-y. Anybody else see anything constructive? https://youtu.be/s28Bdcowudc Yes you are a little too deep in the BR pullout. I can't see the push off nor really see the dolphin kick to know why. If you find your self a little deep going into the pull down, just aim up a little during the pull down to get shallower. The big thing i notice is that as you send your arms forward on the recovery after the pull down you are doing the last part too slowly. It is fine to move the hands slowly as you creep them forward along your body, but once you get to about where they are in the regular stroke recovery you need to shoot them forward. You shoot them forward well during the regular strokes, but not in that pullout. Also, with your BR kick, you are bending too much at the hip, increasing drag. It is interesting that in the underwater kick of your pullout you don't do that. Watch that first kick, that's what they all should look like.
