Im on 2 swim teams and the first thing we I learned on back was technique.To swim backstroke lay flat on your back bring your arms back and pull through the water (almost like a windmill) flutter kick with your legs. to go faster curve your hand so your fingers are facing your feet.If your at a swim meet (competition) you should count the amount of strokes it takes you to reach the wall from the flags.subtract one stroke and replace it with a flip turn.for example it takes me 6 strokes from the flags so i do 5 and do a flip turn.
