Is it possible to compete with a nose clip on?
Due to some sinus problems (so the doc thinks) I need to swim with a nose clip which is ok if I swim just for me, but a couple weeks ago our coach mentioned something about a some competition in the summer...... I feel so stupid wearing this thing on my nose..... Am I the only one? If there a better way to fix my sinus problem? Can it be related to the pool water or am I just making it up? :frustrated:

yeah, right...that must be the reason why all the Phelps and Thorps are frequently seen with those clips in big meets ;)
Seriously. I dont think that this has an impact at all on speed under normal circumstances, but if you have problems controlling the outflow of air, then yes definately there is most likely a big impact on the time you can spend under water.
