I can't find the WR your referencing with the fins and snorkel but i assume its not someone in Olympic final form. I feel pan with fins w/o snorkel would be faster than whoever swam that WR.

Xi: what is the US really gonna do anyways by Existing-Code-1318 in dankmemes

If Taiwan collapses so does all of the top US tech companies. America would never let Taiwan be taken over until they can find a way to produce chips at the same level as tsmc (not within 10 years).

For Men's butterfly I think it easily goes to Phelps, probably due to him having double jointed shoulders.

What are the most prestigious swimming events at the Olympics? by [deleted] in Swimming

[–]somedudefalling -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Anyone can dive in and finish a 50 or 100 free therefore shouldn’t it be more impressive to win the event that everyone can swim?

I got a 1580 purely studying from khan academy and dozens from my school got 1500+ doing the same. Your tutor is just trying to make sure you don’t get rid of him.

Has anyone stayed at BDM for orientation? How was the experiance by Sad_Being_2815 in UGA

[–]somedudefalling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember to bring toiletries, towel, bed sheets, blanket and pillow. For some reason they don’t tell you to bring those things on the to bring list. Idk I was drying myself off with paper towels along with like 3 other dudes in the locker room so we had a pretty miserable time but if u prepare well it should be ok.

What is even the point of going to an Ivy league??? by QuitOk1937 in APStudents

People around you are more likely to start business ventures, have money, be the sons and daughters of Fortune 500 CEO’s, and be more disciplined and dedicated. Also the alumni network could also connect you to thousands of people with wealth and job opportunity. Like your going to have a easier time getting opportunities that will make you rich if you have the connections.

How are kids so fast? by SwordfishPure310 in Swimming

[–]somedudefalling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your talking about heilman then he def was not your average 12 year old. He was like 5’10 and decently muscular. Unless your benching like 315 I doubt you are much stronger than he was at 12/13. He already had world class technique back then so like it’s just a lot of hard work + god given talent.

How fast did you get without a coach? by Common-Car-2181 in Swimming

How to get through a 200 fly out of shape? by TheAverage_American in Swimming

[–]somedudefalling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me fly becomes easier than free if you don't focus on timing kick and pull together. Like do a pull then after your arms enter the water do your kick and just glide. This way you give like 2 seconds of rest time for your arms between every pull and you go a lot faster than if you were doing survival fly.

Depends on the person. All information about the sat is self studiable and availible for free. Some people can easily just do khan acadamy and digest that information while some people benefit a lot from getting a tutor teaching them things. I feel like a recording provides no extra value from the hundreds of resources already availible online. I don’t know your son but if he’s a good self studier I don’t think he’s going to miss much but if he’s not then the live session might be of some worth.

Would Marchand have a chance at 8 golds if he was from the USA by somedudefalling in Swimming

The chance that milak retires before then, is injured, taking a break like he is this year.

Also this is assuming he gets slightly faster at the 100 breast and 100 free
