A few tips for the use of:
1. Read observe the operating instructions and familiarize yourself with the functions of clock trust. The clock is relatively easy to use, but if you do not know the functions, you will annoy black in the water! Try and practice the functions in a training session in which it does not really matters.
2.A turning is a turning point and not break! Find the right timing for a change!
So it's a matter of timing. You will notice that the clock is exactly each train properly count when their turn are uniform and do not delay this. If you take a break, then press the Pause button (see item 1). You are in the case unfortunately have to adapt to the clock. The alternative is again to count himself. Joking aside, if you find the right timing, the clock is very accurate.
3. Accept mistakes. The clock is in my opinion very precisely. The error in counting that occur are usually based on incorrect or external influences. For example, disruption by other swimmers who swim in a train or not / false press the buttons. If you can use the clock properly then (see point 1), you can train easily interrupted by the pause button to start the next hole nine. If they attach particular importance, you can edit your training afterwards on the computer. I swim mostly long distances (3-7 km), When I can get over if me a train goes through their fingers. I can live very well with the lack of 50m or 25m. On average, the clock is very accurate, if one takes a look at the computer after the event and individual training considered in detail. But that is my personal claim to a floating clock.
4. we really need one swolf? It's a nice feature, I watch my values sometimes, but this value has to really be 100% accurate? In my opinion, the external influences just too big (eg swimming interruption or improper contact with other swimmers) are There is a display in any case, a trend. Whether this really needs to agree exactly to one-tenth, each self is left. I still look despite parking aid in the rearview mirror.
5. Can a lap pool in a position by? Are you going to swim fairly evenly (including contact) in a position for more than four tracks? If you can not this, then they really need now, such an expensive clock? The accuracy of the clock, living on a certain uniformity, regarding tempo and timing in the turn.
For me, the clock is now almost 100% accurate, and I always swim still not perfect.
