These comments reflect either a woeful misunderstanding of Swim Smooth's methods, or a transparent strawman tactic.
Terry, are you frustrated that Swim Smooth continues to chip away at your market...

I didn't mean to imply Tahoe was rough - it was remarkably calm. It was just a "here's what I did last weekend" sort of aside. You're right, my stroke in that video is fairly similar to what I'd do...

An observation contradicted, ironically enough, by both Dave Scott and Paul Newsome. LOL. Perhaps the observation itself is bunk (or rather: "untestable").
I actually did do a 1-on-1 session in an...
