Open water swim camp | Sportstages

This camp is aimed at intermediate level swimmers and triathletes/open water swimmers looking for clear, concise and useful coaching to swim faster in open water. This camp will enable participants to swim faster and with more confidence.

This is the camp to understand how to gain confidence in Open Water. It will help you swim only the race distance as many unnecessarily add 100's of meters, teach you how often to look and help with relaxed breathing. We can help you with OW FC technique, which may differ from that in the pool and with fitting wetsuits. Competition tactics will be covered, and we can help both triathletes and those doing Open Water only.

The sessions are perfect for participants from Open Water newcomers to intermediate level (but several pros have participated in the past as well!). The goal is to combine hands-on training with talks, videos and demonstrations. Athletes who have done a few years of endurance training in Swimming or Triathlon will find it manageable and entertaining.

Participation: €210/person
