I'm late to the party but whoever did this clip..genius. thank you 11 years later..😂

this is my most favorite video on youtube ever. seriously.

This guy swims with his entire body, great connection with the water. That's so efficient !

is correct is good, he swims on one line perfect across in the body is fine.

This is the best swim technique video. I can´t get enough of watching it in 0.25 playback speed. I like to study every nuance of the stroke, and each time I learn a little more. Then I go to the pool (like this morning) and focus on a particular aspect of the stroke for every 50 meters. Today I was noticing the timing between the hands as one spears and the other pushes back. The power hand is just about finishing the catch (at 45 degrees from the water surface) as the spearing arm enters. Sorry if this sounds really dumb since I´m a newbie.

amazing to look!! the greatest swimmer.

From superior view, he is very streamlined, great extension of the upper extremities reaching forward and the body rotation and alignment is perfect. Amazing arms flexibilty... great video.

Thanks for making this video. It helps a lot!

This is genius! Both - the swimming and the presentation!

This video is gold, thank you for posting.

A truely great video. Thx for posting. Sun Yang technique is so efficient. Indeed, he does not kick a lot and that's why he is capable of spearing lots of energy for the last 100-150 meters. If you take a closer look at his kicking technique, it can be seen that when he takes a breath, he does not kick at all. And when he returns to streamline position, then he kicks but it looks like it was not a powerfull kick. Another interesting fact is that he permorms 26-27 cycles per 50 meters comparing to Cochrane's 35-36. It is so incredibly efficient. It is worth noting that when Sun Yang was beating world record at Olimpics in 2012 he swum lat 50 meters faster than any other swimmer compiting in 200m freestyle final. Thats absolutely astonishing. I hope that his height is natural and he was not helped by medicine to get so tall.

He does a 4-beat kick, which in fact is a 6-beat on one and a 2-beat on the other side. His kick-timing is very precise. One kick on the right side helps him turning on the left side to breathe on the right, while on the left side he seems to hold a little bit longer out in front and the three kicks here are helping him not dropping his legs and creating some propulsion. The single "breathing" kick is considerable stronger / more accented than the other kicks. In the final of the races we can see clearly, that he is a very strong 6-beat kicker, too.

From the place where he was born this height is expected. Just like Canada it is north part of China. There is a old local saying, being short might get buried by snow. He is also very focused on the route choice so very rare you see him off the center line.

+Eric Wan I don't think that his height is unnatural, but it is not obvious. I just hope so as many doctors and coaches have been saying that at present it is possible to boost someone's height even by genetic modifications. I just hope he is not the case so he can be an example for young tall aspiring swimmers to practise and aiming at biggest prizes. Olimpics included:) Cheerz!

+jaksosna I am really sure his heights is natural, because sun's parents are volleyball Player, they are really tall.(his father is 6ft 2)

Thank you for this montage. Best compilation I have seen to date. This thoroughly captures the sequence of stroke to breathe.

This video just saved me time to watch six different videos. Awesome! Thank you!

He inspired thousands of people to swim like him not for his controversial performances but for his beautiful swimming technique. Thank you Sun Yang ! Anyway all top-level sport cheats. Swim for pleasure ! It's more fun hahaha

right, his competitors act as if they haven’t been “doping” before, nearly everyone has had to use every advantage to get to that level it’s a matter of being caught.

This is really great and has helped soooooo much with PE analysis :) thank you!

Beautiful strokes~!! Unique kicking~!!

This is so good. I did a beginner course at the local pool and didn’t take much from it to be honest. This single clip gives me something to work on every time I go to the pool 👌

Süper aradığım klip olmuş işte teşekkürler emrah.

So wonderful!! Thanks a million!!! I will try to swim your style tomorrow!! its beautifully shot!! l am lucky to see your video, there's nothing like that in the net !! I pray I can mimic at least 80 to 90 % !!

I'd watch a 10 hour version

Wonderful. I don't realise how can it be that since one week I see every day this video. His technique is very impressive. He breathes one side and I love it and I'll try it. Thanks a lot for sharing this nice video.

So perfect execution of every movement!

Thanks a lot for this video! It's very helpful!

Very nice ( and helpful) collage. Thanks.

Thank you for this video!

Really nice high elbows. Thanks for this.

Smooth!

very inspiring!

Could u make Katie Ledecky and Michael Phelps' multi angle camera

the most useful thing yet

Thank you for this videocollage :)

amazing streamline and high elbow.

Thank you for this.

Great video thanks!!!!!☆

excellent angles to view breathing, strokes!

Old video I know, but still a good one. Thanks for the set-up. Well done.

Nice work!

Very useful!

este vídeo es perfecto muchas gracias :)

This guy is efficiency ITSELF

really great job

いま何年かぶりにバタフライに挑戦しています！数あるバタフライの動画の中で最高のもの、前回は挫折しましたが今回はできそうな気がします💪

people always pointing out on his kick tempo and timing,guys dont forget his early and high catch maybe the most powerful among others...that makes the diffrence too...

Fabulous video. Notice he does a quick flutter kick straight after taking a breath. But maintains a 2 beat kick the rest of the time.

Wow!!

beautifull technique¡

Thank you really helpful

PRO!

He is just like playing music in the water :)

wow! he is like gliding on the surface of the water.

Amazing

The Greatest swimmer!

Unlike other swimmers who expend a lot of energy pushing water back, Sun Yang uses his arms as anchors in the water to pull himself forward which is further aided by hip driven momentum driving his body forward, resulting in a smooth style with relatively little water turbulence.

@FalcoBikes

2 жыл бұрын

So water turns into solids or a hook in Sun's lane??? Seems like semantics to me. It's water, and he is fast. Sure. But pull vs push??? come on .

He seems to have two major kicks coupled with two small ones in between. For instance, as his left arm pushes back he kicks with his left foot. Then he does two small kicks followed by another main kick by the right foot as the his right arm pushes back. His kicks are perfectly synchronized with his pulls.

lol ~ GREAT~~~

Straight to Favorites. Thanks you so much! His style resembles a lot Shinji Takeuchi's. Looks like the same school.

@betsylaughlin8652

Absolutely. Shinji is actually demonstrating Total Immersion Swimming style, and by his own admission was an average swimmer prior to learning TI (his before and after was obviously impressive, and often shared when he attended teacher training). We are proud to have him represent us, as Japan now has one of the most successful TI programs globally.

wow

He paddles his feet 4 times, pauses and paddle again. Very impressive ! I have observed that he used roughly 30 strokes to cross the 50-meter pool. Highly efficient !

His technique which minimizes resitance (Sun Yang glides a lot), is in sharp contract with brutal force technique (Ian thorpe's freestyle comes to mind, he kicks a lot like there is shark or something behind him). It's hard to tell which one is better depending on swimming distance, but Sun yang def. saves a lot of energy...

Grande Garanhao Ian Thorpe was a sprinter; Sun Yang a distance swimmer. Two different kicking techniques are involved.

range of thorpe's event is from 100 to 800 free (obviously his best is 400, after that is 200, 800 and 100 respectively), meanwhile Sun Yang's range is from 200 to 1500. Anyway they are versatile freestylers Thorpe got combo medals at 100-200-400 and Sun got medals 200-400-1500 at olympics. If 800 free had been added at olympics, both would have got gold medals.

Actually, Ian Thorpe had a very efficient gliding stroke. There is not a lot of difference between the two swimmers in terms of technique. Both almost catch up on their breathing stroke. This video is of a 1500m swim, so it's silly to compare this with Thorpe swimming a 200m. I would say Yang and Thorpe have more similarities in their technique than they do differences. Hackett and Yang have even more similarities, probably because they both had the same Australian coach.

Watch/read swimsmooth swimming website's technique analysis of both swimmers.they do not glide.

Good

It is incredible to see the minimal amount of bubnles under his hand. I can replicate that in a much lower pace, but when I am swimming his 100 split, it is just a bit slower than my 100 personal best. How can he swim that fast and clean at the same time.

i think its because of his 2 beat kick technique.

👍🙂☺️

Tecnica de natación muy similar a Total Inmersión Swimming, para triatlón y aguas abiertas , dedos abiertos al entrar al agua , cabeza debajo de agua, sincronización de brazada con patada , mucha rotación de caderas

This is fucking amazing. Thank you!

Sun Yang's techniques and endurance obviously is what makes him great...but I believe it's also his unique training and strict diet, especially protein that comes from fish and some veggies, with some fresh fruits, accompanied by a lot of tea drinking...remember Chinese people (and Japanese, also) drinks tea on a daily basis...Try that people, it might work for you, educate yourselves, do some research...:)

Thanks for putting this together. Could you export a 2x/4x slower video and put it up ;)?

He extends almost to the surface. That seems to be the unique thing about his stroke, making it very long.

interesting.

he dont have a swimmer ankle ! great swimmer

Excellent, but it would be even better with an underwater view from beneath (I mean right beneath the swimmer and not slightly off). Anyway great job!

great! but I just miss a front underwater view !

not kicking while breathing.

Yea that's what u do long distance

His kick pattern seems to be left kick, right kick, right kick, pause (and take breath).

Would this stroke translate to longer distance swims like 5k and 10k

I am no expert but it seems to me that he's barely dragging his feet for balance and to save energy for the final 100 meters in his distance races. Btw, is Sun faster than Cochrane because of his superior technique or does a couple of inches in height have something to do with it as well.

could you do the same for example ryan lochte's or even a.peirsol's backstroke?

i wish i could do 1:2 or whatever but i can never expell my breath fast enough underwater to allow me to do so LOL

Molt bo.

i know...

Длинный бассейн у них

He don't have a great plantiflexion. But it's a little imperfection in a incredible smooth freestyle technique xD

sun yang's kick has room for improvement.
