  • Although I hate SCY,I'll be there as it is on the W Coast and I age up(60.)see Y'all there. C'mon Allen - "hate" :badday: is such a strong word. You don't hate SCY, you just prefer LCM. Right? :bighug:

    I have yet to swim in a national Masters meet (this is the beginning of my third year in USMS) but it won't be this one. Alas, I have a old swimming friend from many years ago who swims for the Walnut Creek team, and I might have gotten to see him there. There are rumblings that a group from the St. Louis Masters' group will gear up to go to LC nationals in Indy. A quick glance suggests that the LC times tend to include far fewer non NQT folks, a group to which I will belong. SCY times seem more all over the place, in a good way...
  • Looks like it will be a great meet! Good luck to all!
  • anyone getting tested at nats? GLOBAL SPORT TECHNOLOGY (GST) SWIM POWER TEST - Real time velocity measured 60 times/second at every point of the swimming cycle synchronized with underwater video - Detailed analysis of swimming technique - Comparison of individual swimming technique with world’s best swimmers technique - Drills to improve swimming technique - A DVD with underwater video overlaid with swimming velocity curve To learn more about the Swim Power test, please visit our website: www.globalsporttechnology.org Packages - $100: pull, kick, and swim tests (1-2 strokes) - $100: pull, kick, and swim tests (3-4 strokes) - $300: for a technical swimsuit or wetsuit comparison between 2 different swimsuits or wetsuits – primary benefit is to inform the athlete what technical swimsuit is fastest for their body type and swimming technique - Individual Session $500/session: multiple tests with immediate video feedback, real-time stroke corrections, digitizing the stroke, evaluating drag forces for different swim suits Quotes about Dr. Genadijus Sokolovas services “Genadijus, You’ve Been Such a Huge Help!! Couldn’t Do It Without You!!” Michael Phelps (14-times Olympic Gold Medalist) "Having Genadijus work with me throughout my comeback helped so much! Everyone kept telling me how perfect my stroke was, but underwater there were specific things that needed to be fixed. No one could see that until Genadijus tested me. The fact that Genadijus took the time to work on even the smallest of things helped me be the best I could be, and reach my goals, and for that I am extremely grateful." Dara Torres (5-times Olympian, multiple Olympic medalist): “Throughout my many years of working with Genadijus he has helped me in many ways. The lactate testing and analysis both at meets and practice taught me how to maximize my training and performance. Also the underwater video analysis with the velocity curve showed me how I could improve my stroke through the weaker points where my velocity significantly dropped.” Jason Lezak (3-times Olympian, multiple Olympic medalist) check out an example from the Swim Power test If you want to schedule the Swim Power test, you may reach us at the Global Sport Technology, Inc: info@globsport.org, or gsokolovas@gmail.com or (719) 321-6975.
