The SwimSwam Podcast

In this GMM takeover of the SwimSwam Podcast, we have Nate Tracy, Speedo's VP of Innovation Design and Future Concepts, and Luke Mears, Lead Product Manager at Pentland Brands, to break down Speedo's latest innovation: Speedo iQ. Since the early 2000s, head-up display goggles have been heralded as the next technological breakthrough in swimming. The promise was enormous: real-time data,  and performance tracking that would fundamentally change how swimmers train and race. However, for more than two decades, one problem remained. Swimmers are fiercely loyal to their goggles.

Today on the SwimSwam Breakdown, we are reviewing the inaugural US SCM World Trials and previewing the upcoming CSL Final in Indianapolis.

In the fight to keep the Indian River State College Swimming and Diving Teams afloat, a battle was won on Tuesday. At the Board of Trustees' meeting, with dozens showing up in support of the IRSC S&D teams and many giving speeches to appeal to the Trustees, the BOT voted to table the vote until the next meeting on November 17. Freshman Diver Tessa Sims was among those who spoke to the Trustees and joined SwimSwam to share her perspective on the matter as well as how IRSC Swimming and Diving are carrying momentum after this win for the teams.
