As a synchro swimmer I have many injury stories. We’ve had surprisingly few concussions (although one of my friends got kicked in the head and knocked out during our routine at nationals, she came to and finished the routine) but we’ve had a ton of pulled hamstrings. Between me and only one synchro friend we pulled 9 hamstrings in one year a few years ago. I also got a knee injury almost 2 years ago as a repetitive strain thing from the eggbeater, and then had complications from a surgery to fix that so have landed myself a disability called CRPS. I still swim though and would have competed at British Championships in a few weeks if it hadn’t been cancelled because of corona. Long story short, synchro completely destroys your body and can give very permanent damage, but it is such an amazing sport and nothing could make me stop

I did this sport for five years, where I went from novice to senior provincial team representing my city. It is really hard physically and mentally, and I can confirm that there are many injuries that occur in this sport. I nearly got a concussion myself because I was the base in a lift and the girl jumping off my shoulders did a backflip and landed on my head. I got lucky to just be dazed for a second. I am really thankful to have been able to participate in this sport.

Urf I remember my 4 years of synchro. Super hard and super dangerous yeah(still have light scars on my arms legs and face), but the bond you build with your team is so rewarding. I retired last year and the part I miss the most is my teammates and coach.

Almost had an underwater blackout happen to me while swimming in a heated pool by myself. Not taking into consideration that heated pools will knock u out 2x faster, I did a few laps of underwater presses. Something told me to stop but I continued to do one more. Half way to the end of the pool, an overwhelming calm came over me and my hearing started to fade. My instincts told me to stop and when I did I could barely make it to the side because my legs were numb and I could barely lift myself out of the pool. I sat there for about 10 mins trying to regain my senses. The crazy thing is that I was not out of breath and wasnt the least bit tired. I was literally seconds away from passing out. We had two guys on base die in a training tank doing exactly what I was doing and they BOTH blacked out and drowned. Never do any serious swimming without supervision

I was professionally dancing on shows for many years, I can't count how many times that guy either played something completely different, didn't start when he was supposed to, stopped accidentally in the middle or any other nonsense, despite the fact that he always had strict written instructions even with timing etc., even though we tried it all out at the rehearsal.

It depends on the level you are in. Masters competitions for example(for us old ladies and gents-men can swim in non Olympic competitions) are a bit more forgiving. At a National masters meet a few years ago, one team had the wrong music play and they swim to the wrong music anyways for fear of being docked points if they didn’t jump in. Thankfully, there were allowed to swim it again with the correct music and I don’t think they were docked any points.

They should incorporate fancy helmets; make 'em part of their costumes, and save their brains. Edit: Please know that I understand helmets wouldn't actually be appropriate for this sport. This isn't a real suggestion, just a funny image that popped into my head when I watched this video.

Nope just you snowflake

I got tired in my primary school swimming lessons a year ago in yr 5 And this Is UNBELIEVABLE

All true. I am a member of the ,,Limmat Nixen", one of switzerland's most popular synchronised swimmer group. We always have to smile, and the trainers are very strict. If we make a mistake, they yell at us. If you have questions, you could ask me! Thx, Jazmin ❤

I recommended synchro to everyone it is a tough sport but also fun. One thing forgotten is snapping nose clips ALL the time or is it just me?

I swam for 8 years, from elementary until my last year in high school, and I still hold dear all the memories I made during training, competitions, and everything in between

As a vet synchro, this is all true, training outside and in the water is strenuous and has to be perfect. Competition has 2 parts: chose of 1 group of exercises and 2 free exercises and the routines. Hard but FUN!

wow - a great summary on the syncro sport !

This is so hard and dangerous. I have so much respect for anyone who does this.

as an ex-synchro swimmer, i didn’t realize how much effort higher levels had to put in, mad respect. Synchro is definitely a very difficult sport. My sister did synchro up until she graduated high school while i quit by middle school to pursue volleyball. For people who think that synchronized swimming is easy, watch the video the whole way through, think about painting scalding hot gelatin in your hair, the water slowly stinging your eyes and the hard work the swimmers go through to actually be able to be that good. With all of this, I really wish I wouldn’t have quit though, because you form an unbreakable bond with your teammates and coach, along with having so many fun and exciting moments with ups and downs along the way.

Same, ex-synchro swimmer here! I did the same thing and left the sport to pursue horse riding competitively.

Oef! I remember as a 10 year old i only remember the nose plugs, fake smiling, and cold cold water. Didn't expect it terrible like this! Respect

I never knew how serious synchronized swimming was. Movies always made it seem easy until watching this video opened my eyes to a whole new perspective of the sport. Incredible athletes.

4:52 Me: looks around cuz this is my team so I'm looking for my teammates. sees some of my teammates "wow they have themselves in video without even knowing"

This is such a difficult sport. I commend them for even attempting it. These swimmers are fantastic. I don't know how they're able to make it look so effortless. That's a lot of hardwork and dedication

Forget hardest water sport... i think synchro is one of the hardest sport.

Horse riding is also pretty tough of how dangerous a sport is isn't a flex at all but it is pretty hard to control an animal that could easily kill you

I've loved watching synchronized swimming since I was a kid. It's probably one of the hardest sports to do, let alone compete at the national or international level. It's weird though that men are banned from doing it in the Olympics. They should change that. I think these ladies deserve way more respect as athletes and artists because what the create is pure magic ❤️

My daughter made the GB selection, but had to give up to do her A Levels. There is no proper support for UK girls. Other counties have dedicated schools where this arduous training is combined with study. I think it is one of the most demanding sports there is. Her legacy is confidence and amazing swimming ability.

They are very tough athletes.

Me, a former synchronized swimmer for three years: *ah, the memories* It was actually really fun. I did get kicked in the head really hard at least once though. Not to mention one of my friends got a concussion when somebody landed on her after a big lift.

I did synchro for most of my life and I have gotten a concussion one time when some landed their back on me and also I had an infection in my nose and had to get surgery so I missed our Winter performance. Also my sister quit after the Junior Olympics. 100% NOT FUN

Synchronised swimming is definitely up there as one of the toughest sports out there. Water volleyball too! Seriously impressive, especially these days now it’s so much more acrobatic. Can’t believe that men can’t compete in the Olympics in this era

My Mom was a synchronized swimmer and I always thought the sport was beautiful. After watching your video I now realize how strong she must have been.
