Finning backwards - another attempt...

OK this is what I am trying to accomplish:

Actually this video is very good. I've just come back from a very frustrating dive off scuba shack's beach. After 40 mins work I was no better than in cave class. I can move backwards but my fins stroke lifts me up and back. The guy in this video claps the soles of his fins together before starting his stroke. I'm going to try this tomorrow. All I accomplished today was aggravating a bit of back pain I had, amusing some snorkelers above me and pissing off a damsel fish I was practicing near. Oh yes I can now curse through my regulator!!!
I like the style of the guy in this training video though so I have high hopes for tomorrow.
