We planned to do the video analysis on Thursday 17th Feb but unfortunately we now can't get this time. We are now going to run on Tuesday 8th February, full details below.
Still don't want to eat into a training session so the Tuesday group will have their tues swim session the night of the video analysis (8th February) pulled forward to Friday 4th February at 9:50pm in the sports complex.
The video analysis session will get underway at 9:50pm sharp. All swimmers must be on the poolside and ready to get into the water by then. All swimmers need to register and be assigned a number before the session. Registration is quick and will start at 9:20pm on the poolside stand. It's essential that everyone gets a number and stays in sequence otherwise we won't be able to indentify swimmers. If you arrive to the complex at 9:50pm or later you won't be allowed take part so make sure to get there on time for registration. There is no cost for taking part in this.
DO NOT ARRIVE AT VIDEO ANALYSIS UNLESS YOU'VE EMAILED SHANE AND GOT CONFIRMATION BACK.
The stills show the camera angles we will be using, 2 under and 2 over water.
It's useful to bring a bathrobe or big towel to keep warm in between your videod lengths. You will only swim 2 lengths in the session, one for two front camera angles and one for two side angles and will be sitting on deckside getting cold in between.
We will gather at a later date to analyse strokes, all swimmers will get a CD with their vfootage on it (only theirs, no one elses). The purpose of the session is to allow people see what their stroke actually looks like and to identify areas for improvement. This is the 6th session the club has ran with previous ones proving very successful. There really is nothing like seeing your own video to get an instant understanding of your strengths and weaknesses in the water, it's a powerfull tool.
Everyone attending the Weds, Friday and Tuesday swims are encouraged to attend. Any club members outside of swim sessions are also welcome. The sessions is not open to non club members.
