Backstroke Events
Backstroke events are a type of swimming competition where participants swim on their backs, using a flutter kick and alternating arm strokes. The backstroke is swum on the back, facing the sky, and is characterized by a continuous alternating motion of the arms while the legs perform a flutter kick. This style requires good technique and coordination to maintain speed and efficiency in the water. Backstroke events are commonly featured in swimming competitions, including individual and relay races of various distances.
