She has a very nice 2 beat .Looks as if her hand entry is too narrow, but hey I guess it works for her .

“Narrow entry”? Does this relate to how far her hand is at entry, from an imaginary line drawn parallel to her spine and through the center of her head?

Loved the Benko clip, but the Adlington clip isn't available, "In this country."

It seems that body roll also serves the function of hiding in the body's shadow the the leg that just kicked.

Lindsay said that she tries to keep the other foot near the surface.

It's interesting the way the legs stay splayed apart.

I'll be thinking of Lindsays legs the next time I'm in the pool. (Maybe more often than that. hehe)

Her hand entry from the front view is almost in front of her head as she extends and not in front of the shoulder
