I have the TI 4-stroke DVD and ave generally found it helpful, especially for fly. I'm considering the DVD from goswim.tv that covers all four strokes - does anyone out there have it? I'd love to know whether it's good before I drop the cash.
Thanks,
Heather
I did meet Doug last week while in Whistler for a coaches conference. He is certainly a great guy, and I was fortunate to accompany that fine group to a dinner one night. Turned out to be quite a long night. :) Great group, and we've got a bunch more DVDs heading up to them today. So like you said... NO SHIPPING to Canada (if you're near one of their locations).
As far as other new DVDs, yes, we've got a bunch in the "pipeline", including heading to Hawaii next month to help Karlyn create a masters specific freestyle video. Gonna be a rough trip. :) We'll have more on our site when that gets closer. Thanks.
I have the Kaitlin and Vendt DVD. I am a new swimmer (just past my 15 months since I got into water first time in my life) and still learned a great deal from that DVD. I probably have watched it close to 30-40 times since I got it in June.
Now about Denniston's DVD (the regular one, not the one about turns, which I already have) , does it offer anything more than what Beard's DVD has already talked about?
Which style of breaststroke does he swim? Is his style closer to Eddie Reese's teaching or Richard Quick's? I know neither is his coach, but I don't know about the styles of the other coaches.
Glenn- I'm very pleased that Team Aquatic will be handling your videos; they are a very classy organisation & very involved as a 'good citizen' for swimming in Canada. I am especially happy since we have one of their swim shops at the pool I train at, so freight now a non-issue! By the way, did you meet Doug Perks? He is a wild & crazy guy under his quiet exterior.
Thanks Glenn. I will think about it and see if I will order one. I have got 7 DVDs/VHSs just on breaststroke alone. I need to think about whether I shoudl get another one. :)
I used to swim breaststroke Eddie Reese's style, but now I am swimming the outsweep insweep type (more along the line of Richard Quick's teaching). I find it easier to breathing and timing.
Do you have any other new videos coming up?
Glenn- if you meet Doug again and he happens to overconsume alcohol, ask him about the mysterious draining of the pool at the Canadian Masters Champs in Etobicoke.
