I believe it's less well-coached than it is a momentum of determination the likes of which we rarely see, in any sport, any field, any life endeavor. It's sort of like: She knew at, say, 12, that this was possible (due to accurate assessment of her own talent), so all there was, was to go do it. No matter any barrier or obstacle to the aim. Don't let her calm demeanor fool you: It's several mighty engines beneath the surface, all churning at peak effectiveness. The calm demeanor is not facade or put on; it's another of her superpowers. It is an intense inner focus that ignites all only inside so that the exterior stays insouciant, unperturbed. The natant who deals with water most efficiently is he (or she) who is able to develop superior speed. Summer's freestyle action is... think of the ship's screw, how it is made for water to groove itself harmlessly away down its spiral ribs. This is somehow what Summer is able to do. Watch the underwater live shots. You CANNOT mistake it as someone else swimming! It's the height of human swimming efficiency, and as I've said, it CAN'T be taught. Nature handles these things. And now she's growing... her career ceiling is way up there, almost out of sight. How interesting to watch, to see where she will go!
There is a lot of race footage of Summer from 2018 onwards on the "Sharper Image" channel. Also thanks for shouting out my former team mates Marianne, Curtis & Mark T. I trained with Curtis & Marianne.
Summer made the 400 IM final at 2019 World Trials as a 12 year old - 4:50. She's had great coaching all the way with ESwim, HPC & SYS. Her last coach at Eswim - died in May 2020, Ben left HPC supposedly to be closer to his wife's family which prompted the full time move to Sarasota.
Summer seems to have an incredibility ability to endure pain. Which would allow her to sustain a high tempo throughout 200m - 400m swims. She often complains about the pain at the end of her swims but she just keeps going all out every swim anyway. I think pain endurance could be her best superpower. Could this be a big factor in her winning?
to me there was nothing special in that swim. quite mundane style, just went fast. Not a bad thing after all these "new techniques" that everybody have parroted....
To answer your question, her great talent is a combination of hard work, genetics, stubbornness and a good loving family.

Always happy to educate people on some history. Thanks for listening

The biggest reason Ben left was money
thank you!
@@Mythos131 probably that too but his wife's family is just over the French Border, I did say "supposedly".
shout out to Kevin Thorburn and his program.

Not only does she go all out, she has the technique. She isn't the strongest person in the pool probably.
Endure pain or physiology that she does not feel lactic response the same as others.
I think it's her speed.
