hello!! i am a synchronized swimmer and can answer your questions. like a lot of dance sports, its expected that you start at a really young age to get "good" or have any chance of competing professionally (not that i have ever or will ever compete professionally lol). i liked to swim and dance, so my mom recommended it to me and signed me up for classes when i was about 8. i liked it so i kept going. also, they can hear the music underwater! there are speakers down there. they stay synchronized based on counts of 8 rather than the music though. theyre expected to keep swimming even if the music cuts out.

@@avishagisrael6386 maybe you can see the scoreboard at the end. This video is a free routine. There's 3 main scoring. For difficulty (technical aspect, highness of your eggbitter position, leg position). Art impression is for the artistic aspect (choreography, expression). And execution is how well you put those together in the routine, n how synchronized the move. Its kinda tricky n complicated. This goes as well as the technical routine. But for tech. R, there's couple of Requirements of movements that you have to achieve. For artistic swimming, the perfect score is 100. I remember that the highest score in whole olympics is around 98-99(?)

So impressive!! Incredible skills and lots of creativity in creating the choreography! They are incredibly fast, incredibly strong and whoever created the coreo really knew how to showcase their skills and use synchrony to make the moves even more powerful!

This a very difficult and also a high risk routine. Excellent performance!!
