BONUS - OPEN-WATER SIGHTING
Our 6th most-watched video of 2017. Whenever we need to show a triathlete how to breathe and sight in open water, we show them this clip from Go Swim freestyle with Karlyn Pipes.
For Karlyn, the most effective way to sight in open water is to look up…sight…turn and get a breath. Look up…sight…turn and get a breath. The idea is to stay low so that you don’t upset your balance. Take quick snapshots and get your head back down and your hips up. Look up…sight…turn and get a breath. Look up…sight…turn and get a breath. If you sight without a breath, there’s less chance you will catch a wave and inhale water – and nobody wants to do that.
