Swim Breakthrough?

So I've been trying to figure out what it is I do so well during the sprints vs the distance swims. Coach keeps telling me I get flat and lose my rotation. That may be, but I think that could be part 2 of my problem. I think the first part that goes wrong is my balance point.
When I am fresh, I feel that I am really leaning forward in the water. That keeps my hips and legs up, which allows for much less drag. I think it makes rotation easier as well.
Once I get tired, I lose that feeling of leaning forward and I haven't figured out how to get it back. I do have a couple of ideas tho'. I'll let you know if I figure this out.
