Underwaters


I'm willing to bet that Giles Smith is the best butterflyer you've never heard of.

When you really, REALLY need a breath after a long underwater, experiment with Smith's technique - take it to the side.

Giles is normally a front-breather on butterfly, but sometimes takes a quick side breath when breaking out from underwaters.

Keeping your head low helps keep your legs up, right?

Watch Smith go :45.77 in the 100 SCY fly below.  He swam for Arizona in lane 5.  If you watch full screen, you should see him sneak in side breaths on a couple of breakouts.
