Butterfly, beautiful to watch, difficult to train.
We SDK off every wall.
We're most likely to smack hands with each other and those beside us.
Fly's fun to sprint but no fun when the piano comes down

The faster you bring your arms forward, the more momentum you create against your body going forward. This will tend you slow you down. You want to clear the water when your arms are out of course, but other than that you may only want to bring them forward as fast as you must to keep your pace. I recently really emphasized my kick per That Guy's suggestion and knocked off one stroke on my 25 meter moderate pace. If only I had the core strength of a real swimmer.
