DragSox Update

On Monday evening, @Chloé Krebs & @Julian Middelmann got their first real taste of what it’s like to move through the water anchored by DragSox… and somehow still go fast.

After a warm‑up we hit a little “fun” UW set:

8x (2x fins, 2x fins + Sox, 2x Sox, 2x no mat)

4x 15" vertical ez

2x 15 fish drill

2x 10" vertical all out

4x kick to turn (no wall) to UW kick → sprint

2x 15 dead‑start UW sprint

2x 15 UW sprint

50 ez

No video (coach fail), but the times tell the story: before the set, 15 m UW all‑out was 8.0" for Julian and 9.0" for Chloé.On the first round without mat they popped a sub‑7" for Julian and 7.5" for Chloé. Underwaters woke up real quick.

First feedback – ask them yourselves:“With the Sox it’s basically impossible to kick… and when you take them off it feels INSANE.”

I asked: “If you did this for a full year, do you think your underwaters would be faster?”

Both: 100% yes.

That’s pretty much what Gretchen Walsh is doing on the daily.

Super pumped to see all of you hammering sets with the Sox at camp – got a whole toolbox of nasty - I mean fun - ideas to squeeze every meter out of your underwaters.

See y’all at the pool soon!!!
