New TI Open Water Video – Previews Posted
by Terry Laughlin
We just finished editing our latest video yesterday. I expect it to release on Dec 1. It’s called Outside the Box and is a guide to open water. As I watched the final edit yesterday to approve it for mastering, I felt this would be the most visually interesting video we (or anyone) have ever released. I also thought it had the potential to inspire more sheer excitement and desire to swim — especially in a natural environment…no walls or boundaries, no chlorine — no limits.
We just posted excerpts on youtube for promotional purposes. Take a look and let us know — on the Discussion Forum, in the " Comment on Coaches Blogs" conference — what you think.
This next clip is bonus material, which I have intended as an homage and emulation of Shinji Takeuchi’s hugely popular demonstration of TI technique. His version was shot entirely in the TI Japan pool at Skyfit in Ogikubo. My version mixes Endless Pool, regular pool, Lake Minnewaska and race (Masters World Championships, shot by Shinji) footage. Enjoy.
