Legal Butterfly & IM (Individual Medley) Turns & Finish:
- Butterfly must be a two hand touch turn and finish, just like Breastroke, at every turn and the finish
- For IM Individual Medley:
- Finish the butterfly two hand touch (don't pitter patter, make sure its at the exact same time - this is a common beginner error), then transition to backstroke
- For Backstroke to Breastroke in the IM, remember to do only 1 kick and 1 pull underwater in the transition push off, just like the Breastroke start.
- For Breastroke to Freestyle, two hand touch to finish the breastroke, good strong push off with strong flutter kick, surface as soon as you start to slow down off the push off to begin your freestyle stroke. Finish strong with "Superman" reach extension to the wall.
