Organiser's Description
Join Coaches Anne Torrez and Amanda Smith for an open water swim clinic. We will cover race skills including "seeding" strategy, managing race anxiety/panic in the water, simulation of race start, surging, passing, cornering buoys, sighting, drafting and swimming in crowded/choppy waters. Open to beginner and intermediate open water swimmers, or advanced swimmers who would like to refresh their open water/race swim skills. Participants will be split into groups according to comfort and experience level.
Personal Swim buoys are REQUIRED for this clinic. You will not be allowed to enter the water without a swim buoy! You can purchase at various sites online, including this one. [https://www.xterrawetsuits.com/collections/accessories/products/xterra-swim-buoy-orange]
