The Art of The Deck Change

The Art of The Deck Change

Mike Gustafson of Swimnetwork has done it again.  Reporting on the mundane everyday rituals of swimming, and cracking me up along the way.  I am not sure if I love this column because I can relate to almost all of his diatribes (from doing arm circles for 20 minutes so I don't have to get in the water, to the specifics of The Deck Change) ...I wouldn't be surprised to read about the most offensive topic, peeing in the pool, soon!

 

Here's a great example. 

 

"A swimmer tightrope-walks the line between efficiency and nudity. Between him and one thousand spectators is a 500-time washed ratty towel hanging precariously on the final frontier. Then -- in a blink -- the crime is committed, the clothes are on, and the Earth resumes its anticipated spin.

The Art of the Deck Change."
