I have been watching some underwater footage of fast backstrokers, and I noticed that most seem to finish each underwater arm stroke with their palm facing their leg. I think I finish with mine facing the bottom of the pool. Is this a sign of a stroke flaw or is it just a quirk? Thanks for any insight!

Looking at the attached diagram, it appears that the elbow is locked. Is that correct or should the elbow be bent on the down stroke?
