Introduction
Fitter & Faster is producing a Video Analysis Session on June 25, 2023 from 4pm to 6pm in Dallas, TX for swimmers ages 8 through adults! We welcome age group swimmers and Masters Swimmers!
Sign up to get your swimmer's strokes filmed at strategic angles below the surface by Olympian Santiago Grassi! After filming, your video will be analyzed with voice over and graphics on the actual video by Scott Colby, a former Performance Development Advisor for USA Swimming who spent 13 years providing America's top swimmers and coaches with feedback and detailed video analysis of strokes and races.
Scroll down for more details on the Video Analysis session as well as an informative video clip that provides an overview of what you can expect during this camp!
Suggested Participants
This camp is designed for competitive swimmers of ALL ages and abilities. You will receive an email a week before the filming session with the specific time for your swimmer to check in, warm up, and be filmed.
Curriculum
Since so much of the stroke happens below water – it is incredibly important to see what’s going on below the surface! Small adjustments to your stroke can lead to big time drops! This is your opportunity to get beautiful footage of your stroke and get analysis from an expert… and you can review with your coach as well!
- YOUR ELITE STROKE ANALYZER: Coach Colby spent 13 years working with America's top swimmers and coaches at USA Swimming Championship meets. He provided them with feedback and detailed video analysis of strokes and races. Now, he will do it for you!
- ANALYSIS: Our Fitter and Faster expert will use a video analysis application to record their comments on your technique. They will use slow motion, pause the video at specific points, and draw on the swimmer's video all while explaining where opportunities for improvement are. Each stroke will have approximately 3 to 5 minutes of expert commentary that you can review with your coaches at home!
- DRILL RECOMMENDATIONS: You will receive recommendations for drills to correct the technique of each swimmer.
- SIGN UP: Select to have one stroke filmed. Or, SAVE by choosing to have all four strokes filmed. The "multi-stroke options" are for individual swimmers and cannot be split.
- ORDER NUMBER: You will receive an e-mail approximately one week before the filming session with the specific time for your swimmer to check in, warm up, and be filmed. Please retain your order number - this is how swimmers will be identified on that schedule.
- FILMING LEGNTH:: Depending on the number of strokes you are getting recorded, your session time will run between 5 and 15 minutes.
- ARRIVAL TIME: You will receive an email a week before the filming session with the specific time for your swimmer to check in, warm up, and be filmed. When you arrive at the pool, you will be greeted by Fitter & Faster staff who will provide you instructions on the filming process.
- WARM UP: Participants will have an opportunity to warm up before filming.
- FILMING: Our camera operator will ask you to swim two 25s at a strong pace of each stroke purchased (1 stroke or all 4 strokes). The filming of each stroke will take about three minutes. The video will capture a side angle and a front angle below the water to get an accurate view of your technique.
- GETTING YOUR VIDEO BACK: All videos will be analyzed and returned within 14 days of the camp. The analyzed videos along with the original video will be sent via email for you to keep!
