You also have to keep in mind peter vanderkaay was a distance swimmer, not a sprinter/ mid distance swimmer like phelps, maintaining underwaters like phelps' is nearly impossible for a 400m Free or other similar event, hence why his stroke is longer and slightly more efficient to make up for his comparitivly lacking underwaters. Not saying phelps doesnt have fantastic underwaters, he does, just the the comparison isnt really fair
@@hangchill4419 there is no issue with that.....in IM he has to maintain stroke consistency and technique. In long distance races gliding consumes much needed oxygen and you end up tired before you finish the laps
I loved this video because it shows clearly the benefit for those that applies this technique, on how the swimmer can save energy getting out of the backward water trail and get at the end of the competition with more energy to become more competitive. Congratulations.
his dolphins kicks are fucking godly

honestly Vanderkaay has way better form than Phelps when it comes to the jump as well and the flip which is a really good thing about him
Have you seen Phelps's 400 IM XD his last turn still has 4-6 dolphin kicks

You can't really compare as each person and swimmer has different style for their bodies... but Phelps seriously is like a fish or dolphin underwater.
