Description

    The body is streamlined and almost horizontal in the water. The back of the head in the water and eyes looking up towards the ceiling and and very slightly forwards. Hold the head perfectly still in a central position. The chest is clear of the water surface with hips held high. Increased upper body rotation will enable more power to be applied throughout the pull. The feet and toes are pointed to the opposite end of the pool creating a small amount of white water splash. Kicking is achieved with knees kept below the water surface. Ensure good streamlining at all times.
