During the performance we focus on:
- extending the body at the same time as the arms are returning, the head is lowering between the arms and as we do the kick,
- long gliding in extended body position after the kicks, strokes and cycle
and
- knees so that they are narrower than the feet at the kick out,
- bringing the feet up,
- bent arm pull (the hands reach a position in front of and slightly outside the width of the shoulders),
- symmetrical leg movement,
- not bending the knees under body too much,
- properly wide underwater stroke,
- symmetrical arms movement,
- acceleration of the stroke,
- finishing the stroke at the horizontal plane through the shoulders,
- bringing arms back with less head-on resistance,
- lifting the head for inhale at the proper time,
- lowering the head quickly and actively.
