    Dear Ian, dear David, your video was the first step forward in a new life. I was in the Army the last 22 years and overcame the biggest crisis of my life. Your video inspired me to "go swim", in february, here in Germany in the river of my city and this was THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP TO SURVIVE. To go back to my old sport, to go and feel my body and soul, the water, nature, ... later on I changed to Stand up Paddling also, but this initial step, was the start of my new life. Thank you very much my friend. Take care of you and if I can support you, somehow here in Germany, let me know.

    Dear Ian, am a long time swimmer, and a few weeks ago some friends encouraged me to go open water in a lake. I was thrilled, but first time had a sort of panic surge. I watched many videos - most very focused on technicalities - after I watched your video it gave me that last bit of confidence and that was a game changer, finally did the cross. Thank you!

    I tried swimming with groups but truthfully appreciate the solitude of my ocean swim (apart from my fishy friends) ,no competing all at my own pace. I usually end up 200 metres away from the shore away from other swimmers. Nearing 54 YO and feeling the best about my body and fitness ever.

    I'm taking swimming lessons and my ultimate goal is to one day, be able to swim in the open water and overcome my fear of the unknown.

    Lovely film. And passion. I'm a sea dock swimmer mostly (with the odd swim in the sea. But absolutely love cold water and being outside of the contraints of a pool.

    Just discovered this video....as you know: EXCEPTIONAL. The best I’ve ever seen on open water swim. Headed out in a few for today’s swim, and will think of this while swimming.

    I feel the same. I’m a senior in Canada n I do 3 km in the pool but I enjoy open water swimming more. I do only 1.5 k but it feels so relaxing and meditative. I swim in the ocean in a secluded bay, though I stop mid October as it gets too cold. Thanks for the video!
