For a Turned Shoulder 10-6-B & 10-13-B
At the top, are both shoulders level, horizontal, the
same height from the ground?

Right on, Bucket!
This essential alignment -- Right Shoulder back to the Plane -- is missed by those who would have you take your Left Shoulder down in the Backstroke. When the Left Shoulder goes down, the Right Shoulder goes up. And for now, forever and for always, the Plane is back, not up!
The Hands, of course, have been On Plane since Impact Fix (8-2) and remain so during their journey to the Top (8-6). As they reach Shoulder height, they ideally are joined by the Right Shoulder (10-21-0-1). But, when the Shoulder goes up (instead of back), the Hands lose a valuable ally and must forfeit Right Shoulder support during the Start Down.
The result is a compensated Stroke and a Machine that is less efficient than it could have been.

Approximate the left arm by looping a 4-foot cord around your left shoulder and stretching it with your right hand. Swing the stretched cord to the Top -- right shoulder high and On Plane -- with your right arm.
That is the Mechanic.
And that is its Feel.
I wrote a post recently for DrewitGolf with an idea for a TV teaser spot on exactly this mechanic. I'll find that post and link it here. Meanwhile, if anybody beats me to the punch . . . Thanks!
