damn the girl in the light blue suit stayed under for a LONG time! the one to the left of her took like 7 strokes before the one in blue even came up!

haha yea i noticed that, craziness!

I can do stay under water after the backstroke start for the whole time, (25meters) but you have to break the surface with.. 12 or 15 meters? i dont exactly know that yet. Thats why i always break the surface to early just to be sure :) And i dont have the feeling i go faster under water butterfly kicking :P . but I am not a pro .. unfortunaly

I swim 34sec at the 50m backstroke not that bad though

You have to break the water at the 15 meter mark for all four strokes. I've been DQed for going 17m of a backstroke start.

I've been swimming for a while, but I've never tried a backstroke start until yesterday. (I mostly stick to fly and free) I have a new appreciation for backstrokers. lol.

when i first saw this i was like, WoAh!! because they stay underwater doing the butterfly kick for soooooooo long. I'm gonna have to try that. lol.

Thanks for posting!!
