The head is held comfortably, but slightly raised, looking towards the toes. The body is bent a little at the hips and knees, to allow better driving power. (2) Leg Action-- The kick for this stroke as in the crawl, „is..a..six or eight .beat (three o r . four leg kioks t o " each arm stroke). Toes slightly inward. (3) Arm Stroke -- Arms _stroke alternately,, one driving" Avhile the other, recovers. The arm enters the water outstretch­ ed, beyond the head, palms fact­ ing outward. The pull to the hip is shallow, and out to the side, about 12 to 15 inches und^ . water. A deep stroke (as in the crawl)' w;ould cause rolling. The arm is r^overed by lifting the elbow, forearm"relaxedr" When- the arm is verticle it. straightens for its overhead entry. Be-sure you.rest one arm while the other works.
