Wow

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Enjoy the opening water swimming

Freedom!

it's great for me to listen, greetings from Indonesia

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.

beast!

great video. congrats.

My first OWS went well except for a brief moment of panic. The wind was moving across the top of the water from left to right, and I thought for a second I was stuck in a current. It turned out it was just an optical illusion I relaxed, and the rest of the swim was very pleasant. BTW I was swimming breast stroke stroke not free style.

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.

I want to use your video to inspire swimming lovers in our country, Vietnam, I'm very grateful for your video, I wish you good health

Your video is great

great video, i am just beginning to swim at midlife. Can only go about 100 yards now, but dreaming of crossing some larger bodies. very relaxing and uplifting

Beau clip vidéo ! Comme vous ...maintenant cela fait depuis 2 ans que je nage en étant en contact avec la nature ! C'est la suite logique du covid et de ses interdits , donc voilà depuis 2 ans je nage en Lac, mais par contre je le fais de nuit dans le noir ! J'attends de retrouver les piscines mais cela n'est pas comparable !😉🙃👍

How did you get the over head shot with the drone? Just park it in the sky and swim in the shot?

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!

absolutely wonderful!

This is beautiful. Thank you

Yes go swim I am an open water swimmer as well great video congratulation and thank you

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!

I’m 69 years old and I love it also. Especially in the open ocean.

Very Very nice!

its so fkn cold and windy at lake waikatipu in queenstown new zealand

I am only a distance swimmer in pools..but this really is wonderful....Have you noticed that the background music really matches with the sounds underwater? ANyway just an observation .Great video....

WONDERFUL

Sorry. I couldn’t watch due to the annoying background music. Try again.

Why this guy is not moving his legs in the water...

Wer they same path mentor.!!look's interesting activity. IL Do swimming biking and running..

Only local can enjoy their native nature...never outsiders

I love it

Tempted

Very nice

I love swimming but I have had heart failure which acts up at times but if I had some floation devices I would feel ,more secure ,great job fantastic videos great rehab thnkyou

I like the moment you enjoying the cup of tea. Its like big reward from the swim in the wild nature. Thank you for the clip.

why do you use a full length suit instead knee length long legs? Would it matter if ones suit is shorter much or not? I got one with short legs and long arms...is it going to be good for this type of swimming as well?

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. Christian

Beautiful cinematography - perfect choice of music!

Hi Ian, I would like to connect with you. Recently I have started open water swimming and at beginner level. I would like to know your inputs on the same. How can I connect with you? email id?

Thank you. I love the idea of open water swimming.

Swim in the sea is different every season is different temperature Every day the sea is different. I swim in the same place for 60 years☺. Here the temperature of the water is from 17° - 31° in the summer. We have lake 70 Km from home and it is too far for me to go there. Sure this lake looks great! █

💪👏👏

Lovely video. Swim life.

I am living in Dakar _Senegal
