Omega blocks

Hi all We're about to use Omega blocks for the first time at our short course nationals in the UK. I don't currently use a track start but it would seem like I'd be looking a gift horse in the mouth not to use them.. However, I won't have the chance to practice in advance (apart from warm up). Any tips?

  • They are easy to use and you will like them. Just make sure that you know how to move them up and back. You want your back leg/knee to be at 90 degrees when your foot is on the back part of the block. Don't just accept the placement of the fin where the last swimmer had it, they can (and should) be moved if necessary. Have fun!
