As a coach who thinks out of the box, I find this study very interesting. Reminds me of the 60's when swimmers had different World Records for fresh and salt water pools. The salt water pools were denser, but the extra buoyancy of the salt water allowed for faster records.
The goo might have made for better video of water flow paths. I would have loved to try pushing off breaststroke and trying to get 15 yards:D
Looking forward to his actual results. This media piece doesn't tell the whole story.
