a safety talk specific to each new location, and offer in-water technique suggestions, and open water strategies.
All open water camps begin with a 4-hour freestyle swim technique clinic with video at the pool. If the timing
is right, the camp will include a local open water swim competition (swim are offered year-round in Hawaii).
