Just showing that after 40+ years in the sport, you've got to be able to have some fun... oh... and some of those "extra" skills you pick up along the way.

so, how many of those 40+ years did it take to master this "skill?" |
|
|
Still working on it. They don't all come out so nice. :) |
|
|
definitely a must know skill for all swimmers who seek to become great... :) |
|
|
Very Good - whats the secret and hows it done.... I bet lots of practise is required... |

There's a picture where Brendan Hansen is doing the same thing on this website. Must be a good breaststroker thing |

I find it hilarious that your doing this, one of my fellow backstrokers( its not always those pesky breaststrokers)told me stories how when she was a freshman in highschool, the coach just let them mess around, and he would be like "swim a 50...and then do donuts!!" Long story short, they went undefeated that season, i guess it works for some people, i will stick to hard work, and focus =] |

There is no such thing as a pesky breaststroker!!! only cool ones :) |

I don't know about you all but this is a key element in my training. Along with the occasional slow 25's drill. I'm ready to race :) |
