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
What did you do in practice today?

Jack - thanx for the rule reference. I did talk the the head official and get the DQ voided after I showed him my side breathing style. Yes a video of the National meet is on line thru you tube and the meet. Day 3 - sat. at about 3 hours and 7 minutes in heat 3 lane 8. I do seem to lag my right arm BUT both hands enter and pull thru and exit the water at the same time. Shoulder drop is not a problem until it is past 90 on the *** , I would think. I asked him what to do in my 400 IM and 200 fly on Sun. and he replied if I get dq'ed see him to have it reversed.
I think the official had not seen side breathing in us old swimmers and it looked "funny" so issued a DQ on me.
Thankful the head guy reversed it for my 5th place at nationals!!!
