5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for triathletes - Open Water Swimming, February 20, 2008
Whether you compete in open water swimming or in an olympic pool, this video is very helpful. There's plenty of great tips. Visual aides helps the text one reads in triathlete training books. This video is a very useful compliment to any triathlete or competitive athlete book. One year a triathlon may be in a pool and you may be surprised to learn the next year the event has been moved to open water swimming. You need this video.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great DVD to prepare for Triathlon swimming, September 5, 2008
By Andrej "Range Reader" (Springfield, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This is a very solid DVD on essential swimming techniques for triathletes. It has all the essentials on sighting, drafting, and safety; however, I find the most useful section to be basic freestyle tips. Though not intended to be a DVD on freestyle, it probably has the best illustrations and guidance on core-based freestyle techniques.
