I have graduated to "polar bear!" The open mouth with my head up lunging for a piece of meat was just not working!I don't know if "penguin" will ever be doable but it is the struggle that makes you better don't you think?

I'm still trying to improve on my elephant postion let alone tiger or polar bear!
Hahahahaha - If you modify your streamline from the elephant position into more of a hippo, I bet you could take that 24.12 of yours and change into a high 22.00
Chris, if you would have taken up swimming as a kid instead of in "old age" you would been an Olympian. You have have been swimming for what, 2 years only and you are swimming a low 27 for the 50 free LCM and a low 24 for short course. If you start nailing your turns and streamlines, you will be unstoppable!!!
This is great!
But I do have to admit that sometimes my stealth penguin streamline changes into that tiger growling looking thing when I am trying to chase down one of the guys at the noon practice on a final 25!
Tony thanks for the encouraging and greatly exaggerated opinion on my swimming potential! I can only hope to improve on what I swim in the here and now. All of us have some "shoulda, coulda, woulda's" throughout our lives that don't mean anything ultimately.
