The Serape Effect is a cross-body connection that stretches some of the upper body muscles to their greatest length in order to create a snap-back effect. When this tension is released from these muscles they shorten for the completion of the movement, and a greater velocity is applied than had the muscles performed from a normal resting length.
Fastest swimmer in Ironman, Josh Amberger, uses this extremely well to be able to consistently hold a fast pace and rhythm despite not having some of the traditional technical elemnets you'd see in many elite pool swimmers such as a high elbow catch.
