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

(In comparison, I tried that bottle-on-the-forehead drill for backstroke, and immediately got it, doing a build 100 complete with very slow, careful bucket turns!). In addition to breaststroke, backstroke comes more naturally to me.)
Do you ever do one arm drills for fly? If not, try. Definitely puts the whole body into play, and gets teh kick initiated more in the core (at least for me).
