Are you curious about what it is like to swim in a wetsuit? Or do you already have a suit, but find that swimming suddenly feels completely different? Then this clinic is for you. In collaboration with openwaterswimming.club & shop.nl, we are organising a swimming clinic with wetsuits and a fitting session in lane 8 of the 50-metre pool at the Hoornse Vaart swimming pool on Sunday 29 March from 10:00 to 12:00.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the clinic you will learn more about swimming in a wetsuit. Think about technique, putting on the suit and taking it off quickly again. Do you not have a wetsuit of your own yet? No problem. There are also various test models available for both breaststroke and front crawl. That way you can experience for yourself what a wetsuit does in the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, there is a fitting session. This is useful if you are in doubt about your current wetsuit or are looking for your first suit. You can try on different models and get advice on the correct size and fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why swim in a wetsuit?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A wetsuit can have many benefits. It provides extra buoyancy, helps to keep your body in a better position and can bring more peace of mind and confidence in the water. It also keeps you warmer, allowing you to swim in open water earlier and for longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it is important to know that swimming in a wetsuit feels different from regular swimming. Your shoulders may tire more quickly and it takes some getting used to. Precisely for this reason, this clinic is a great opportunity to familiarise yourself with it or to improve your technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
