About this episode
Dax & Elvis go OFF on terrible starts, turns, and technique in college swimming — especially after watching conference meets.They call out Arizona State’s Ilia (Ilya) for painfully slow turns despite being unstoppable, roast Big 12 teams for the worst execution they've seen, and explain why Tennessee dominates relay starts with low-swing athletic dives (not bunny hops or flopping in).Plus: Why open turns in fly/breast are the SAME skill (mind blown for many), how Gen Z swimmers lack basic body awareness from no tree climbing/outdoor play, the "Gen Z stare," programming habits during easy 100s, and brutal advice — fix your turns or get exposed at NCAAs.Unfiltered swim real talk, no SwimSwam recap vibes. Perfect for age-groupers, high schoolers, college swimmers, and coaches prepping for short course season, Texas Age Group Champs, D1 NCAAs, and sectionals.? Night Swim PodcastWhen the pool lights go out, the real talk begins. Hosted by Dax Hill (NCAA champ, Texas Longhorns legend, high-performance technique guru @Reykli) and Elvis Burrows (Bahamian Olympian, national record holder, founder of Burrow's Best swimmer hair and skin care), Night Swim is unfiltered swim culture — NCAA battles, Olympic tea, training hacks, and pool-deck chaos.
