As quoted in the AP article:
"You'll all have to see. I'm not saying anything until we unveil it," Phelps said with a grin when asked how he's tweaked the stroke. "It's a significant change. You'll be able to tell exactly what I did as soon as I take my first stroke."
He's on tap to swim the 100- and 200-meter free and the 100 butterfly at the Charlotte UltraSwim in NC. Should be interesting to see.
The press is going to be all over that meet. Some network really needs to run this meet live. NBC, here is a way to get some ratings. I am sure that this will get bigger 18-49 numbers than Hereos or all the Law and Orders.
I think that Phelps is having fun now with his swimming. He doesn't have to do anything anymore because he has proven that he is the greatest swimmer of all time. Now, he can experiment with new techniques and focus on new events like the sprints. If he doesn't dominate, the mainstream sports press will call him a failure. If he dominates, good for Phelps.
