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?

Those are my kids, and yes you are right. Thanks for the comment, they are great! (I am a bit biased though)
P.S. My kids have seen my avatar on here and now think they are world famous!
And of course they are now world famous!! ....And I agree with Donna....When will we ever find out the true mystery of the pole? Maybe some things are best left as a secret LOL!
Jim Thorton....That sounded like a lot of fun for you and your bro! I would be worried about getting my fingers stuck in the drain though....that would put a real damper in the fun. Looks like you guys never had that problem though!
The lifeguard seemed to be pretty good natured about the games and what not. Sounds like a pretty cool lifeguard.
Fort: Like the new avatar! And the caption that goes along with it LOL!
I've seen visual evidence on FB of the game you mention too LOL!
Kyra and Barb: That sounds like a pretty fun game! Although I think I will keep my suit on.....for the benefit of the other patrons of course LOL! :rofl:
