    2008: Biedermann, Phelps, Vanderkaay, Tae-Hwan, Basson
    2012: Sun, Tae-Hwan, Agnel, Lochte, Biedermann. (Phelps probably could've entered as he was still a good 200 freestyler)

    The Arena X- Glide tech suit he wore in 2009 increased his buoyancy due to it made of 100% polyurethane. Beidermann was a pretty big and bulky guy when he set that record. The transition from the body suits to jammers hurt big guys like him because now he has to work harder to keep that weight afloat, where the bodysuit+weight combo used to make people like him incredible. Bob Bowman said it himself though. it took Phelps 5-6 years to drop 4 seconds in the 200. Biedermann did it in 11 months.

    I think 08 and 09 were too recent when this happened, so the commentators don't realise what an incredible feed 1:43.14 is. No one since has even come close, yet the announcers just shrug it off, like it's an ok time or something.

    Yes Phelps' Beijing time was quicker.... because he wore a Speedo LZR. Not as fast as Biedermann's suit (Rome), but still quicker than those worn by the London field. Worth roughly a second over a textile, so without it the time would've been around what he did to win 07 Worlds (1.43.86). Good for silver here, but (probably) not enough to beat Agnel.

    • @theterminator308
      @theterminator308 10 років тому

      phelps had been at his peak in 2007 not 2008 before supersuits was applied...I think that he would never get under 1.44 again without LZR suits. It is proven that phelps swam 1.44.79 in textile (off his PB by 0.93) in shanghai 2011 or 1.44.05 as anchor leg in london 2012.

    Michael Phelps made 1:42,96 in Beijing then made 1:42,00 in 2009 WCH
    Phelps decided not to swim in 200m freestyle in London because of the relays.
    Yannick Agnel came first with 1:43,14

    However, Yang's coaching problems might be a serious issue. I've heard rumors of him dropping various events.

    The crazy part is that he didn't swim the 400 because of the the 4x100 freestyle relay. The time he swam at the french qualifications was fast enough to get the bronze in London, he probably would've gone a lot faster if he had raced it.

    Can someone explain me what happened to Agnel? He was just perfect back in some days and now he cant even qualify for semifinal and decide to retired. What happened?

    • @rcmanization
      @rcmanization 8 років тому

      he is back, not retired. but he just lost his form i guess

      That is true. But Agnel was not injured. I have feeling he just burned out.

      4 years is a long time injuries and form slumps can happen just look at James Magnussen although not as shot as Agnel still a shadow of himself.

    I don't think Park Tae Hwan is swimming in this WC. I'm not positive on it, but I've heard he is skipping it. I don't think Biedermann will do much, unless he goes back to his old stroke. Also, in regards to your earlier post about Agnel and Lochte, neither of them are top in the world. Izotov is. He whipped out a 1:44 a little while ago. I think the race will be Izotov, Agnel, and Lochte fighting for the finish.

  • @MickChickenn
    @MickChickenn 11 років тому

    Agnel got wrecked in the 100, so that means little. And just because he can swim the 400 and the 800 short course does not mean he can swim long course. There are plenty of people that never made the transition. Yang is the favorite in the 400, 800 and 1500, and a contender in the 200. Agnel is a slight contender in the 100, favorite in the 200, a heavy contender in the 400, and has no shot in the distance as of now. At the moment Yang is set to have a better meet. Coaching might hurt, though..

  • @adamroflll
    @adamroflll 11 років тому

    Agnel did not choke. He is not in great shape as he switched coaches and moved to america. He was faster at the 150m in barcelona than here. Difference was here he came back in 25.98 and in barcelona only 27.20 due to not being in top notch shape

  • @dfisdjnjcsjsjn
    @dfisdjnjcsjsjn 11 років тому

    That would probably be pretty close. Yannick does 3:43 for 400, Sun does 4:40 and Yannick is the faster 200m swimmer.
