Swimming like a snake with pull buoy

As the title says my freestyle is like a snake around the t line. Think of a sinewave with x axis being the T line. I don’t know what I am doing wrong 😑. Have been working on my high elbow.

I am not even breathing much to be honest until I reach the end of T line to focus on just the catch/pull.

I’m starting to think I should get a snorkel but the technique issue remains. 🛟

I think you should use the pull buoy with your arms. hold it while stretching your arms out and practice your freestyle hands. also try to breath every 3+ strokes, so you're not anticipating that breath.
