Our Review.

The sound track alone on this DVD makes it worth purchasing, or at a minimum, borrowing from a friend.

The underwater photography is brilliant, informative, and inspiring.  While I as watching the DVD I found myself occasionally zoning out, remembering my past adventures in the water in vivid detail.  When combined with the original score, the magic of weightlessness and seclusion that only come to those of us lucky enough to find ourselves 100% at peace in the water, is revealed.

So what about the advice on how to swim fast?  This too is better than anything I have seen to date.  Gary Hall does a great job of breaking down the study of fluid mechanics into plain English.  In fact, I don't even recall hearing the words vector, fluid mechanics, or even physics.  The way a body moves through the water is quite complex, but does not seem so when explained in this video.  This DVD brings swimming fast to life for anyone lucky enough to watch it.  If you think training hard, lifting weights, and eating right are enough; think again.  You have got to master these three fundamental principals to swim FAST!
