Is any one else bugged with the quality of swimming shown in commercials. It is very rare to see any one who is at all smooth in the water. It especially bugs me in health club ads as they are showing what people are striving for & the swimmers are flailers.(There is a lite beer ad where a man & a women are racing & they are clearly swimmers) Surely there must be some actors who really swim.

Allen,
Living here in La La Land I get several requests per year as SPMA Chairman to supply swimmers for commercials. The agencies are trying to get good looking real swimmers for their comercials. So I usually send them to Michael Heather:D
Actually a few years ago when SCAQ was part of the system, they had a team photo with dozens of individual photos and each persons occupation. About half listed actor/model. I remember Shannon was one.
The commercial where the woman beats the man and gets the beer reminds me of one couple here who will race 200 back (Woman) versus 200 fly (man). I love watching them race. I guess loser does dishes:p
