Things to do in the water other than "just swim laps"
Former Member
Here are some things I'm particularly enjoying:
-- doing a deep dive off the board, trying to touch then bottom, and then dolphin kicking back to the surface
-- doing a bunch of flip turns in a row "on the spot" in the water, rather than off the wall
-- anything involving attempting to recover an object (e.g. brick)
-- anything involving a pole
What are your little quirky things? Or is everyone here so busy training that no one has any fun in the water?

Hmm, let me think...
One-arm freestyle (hand-lead)
One-arm backstroke (head-lead)
Lazy legs freestyle (arms only)
Lazy arms freestyle (kicking with alternating left/right sholder above water)
One-arm fly drill (straight/bent recovery arm)
Three breaststroke, one fly
Three backstrokes, glide, same again, glide
Two backstroke, five front crawl no-breathers repeat
Underwater freestyle
Swim very slowly
Find every variation of turning:coffee:
