Synchronized Swimming Lessons : Egg Beater Kick for Synchronized Swimming

[Shorty20122012]

Where does the propulsion from this kick, which keeps you afloat come from?

[mdm15]

@Shorty20122012 this video doesnt really show you this but as your leg should be angled downwards so that your pushing water down to keep you afloat, also the movement down should be made with you foot pushing water down to help. what she does at the start is just to get flexibility.

[OFFiCiALRADiCAL]

Omg! She talks exactly like Jennifer Hudson!

[hitmanhart22]

I like the way she made this complex move so easy. Thanks.

[aquietfaith]

WORK!!! Thank you so much for providing this information. I'm probably twice your age, and was never able to tread water with ease. For two days, I've been doing 100 egg beaters on each leg, and then practicing treading in the middle of the pool. I'm so proud of myself! Now, I've got to see if I can get some height on my body jumps. Wish me luck!

[aquietfaith]

Okay....I went to the pool, and tried your techniques out. Guess what? THEY WORK!!! Thank you so much for providing this information. I'm probably twice your age, and was never able to tread water with ease.  For two days, I've been doing 100 egg beaters on each leg, and then practicing treading in the middle of the pool.

[faithskinner]

This is AWESOME! I've never been very good at treading water, and no one was ever able to really show me what to do. You explained the movements well, and even provided info on how much practice I'd need to get good at it. Thanks a million!

[GorgieClarissa]

That was unbelievably cool!!!

[TheSalvation777]

I wiosh you could be my teacher. I'll be inspired by it. Need to learn how to do this, BEFORE I go in to boot-camp which is in 18 days!!!

[iPinkLollypops]

this is the hardest swimming thing i ever have to do

[charcoaljohnson]

I have to do 100 circles 100x a day!?

[kirkivanbaesa]

WTF?! an octopus!~ :O

[ImpossibleZoweeGirl]

That's actually really EASY. Not hard at all. 

[DancerInside]

@ImpossibleZoweeGirl When ur in the middle of a synchro routine , its extremely hard to try and eat-beat so tht ur belly button is out of the water!

[djAlix6x9]

good job , thank you sweet heart <333

[dg2500]

Lazy black girl

[hugmenow]

wow 

[ArtiEnergy]

whats up with your attitude ??

[121vikkie]

OMG MAN SHE WELL MAKE THAT SHIT LOOK REALLY EASY

[midnightcat3]

keep your legs farther apart (or maybe it was just the camera angle idk) n try to get your chest out of the water XD

[japever11]

need to learn more techniques♥♥♥♥

[Crazybuttlazy]

roflcopter xD

[xzzxwarp]

that looks wierd

[eaglesfreak911]

can any1 help me on how to get better leg timing or is it just gonna come with practice

[iPinkLollypops]

i can`t do that . ._.

i`m so screwed for classes .

[HouseDiva33]

i wonder if you can do this excercise without being in a pool?

[vpg2daunit]

thnks nice vid, very helpfull, cos i cant f-king swim

[maria461]

when ur upsidedown,do you exhalate the air? or u just dont let the air to come out.Thanks 4 the answer

[HelloHansSolo]

Do synchronized swimmers have loose pussys from doing this eggbeater all the time?

[SmashGuitarThrash]

@HelloHansSolo LMAOO!

[justinperry1]

Keep up the instruction videos. Like the enthusiasm for eggbeater.

[exequiel900]

i use frogy

[XAbhi95X]

i can eggbeater to my waist

[aliiLATER]

yeah my waterpolo coach is telling me i need to practice my egg beating

[PunkyPrincessPop]

so you are moving your feet in different directions right??

[thedriver]

what most people are fogeting to put in their videos, on this technique, is how you have your feet. it's more fixed than relaxed. also you're pushing with the arch of your foot vs. the top and bottom of your foot. that's why its so difficult for many people.

[miraan786]

wow nice skills... pretty looking too.

[benito1188]

this egg beater is harder than it looks haha tried it this morning and i kept on sinking

[chaotichv]

it looks like a crab walking on water

[DREAMYmona]

Bitch

[snokia009]

In waterpolo, we do a lot of eggbeating that it isn't even funny. It's pretty tiring =D

[RichPwns]

It's the same with lifeguard training :(

[homerun0207]

she looks like a frog when she does that

[DHLartist]

SHE teaches you how to kick.

[5waterpolo5]

is this how I should do it in waater polo?

[bryanthelian]

yeah but for polo its better to learn it doing it as fast as u can and also try to do lateral (side to side) frontwards, and backwards eggbeater besides from just doing it vertically. once u get better than try to do it without sculling, then hands up, then forearms out, then elbows out, then hands on the top of ur head, then c if you can clasp the ball with ur hands on top of your head , than once all of that gets easy start using weightballstip: TRY TO DO IT AS FAST AS POSSIBLE AND TAKE BREAKS

[5waterpolo5]

thanks

[bryanthelian]

no problem

[5waterpolo5]

do u do water polo?

[bryanthelian]

yeah

[5waterpolo5]

me too. what state?

[bryanthelian]

california

[5waterpolo5]

i play in slovakia

[bryanthelian]

nicee

[Crystalxclear1]

wow she needs to rethink what she just said oh and eggbeating isnt exactly one of the best ways of support yu can kick your legs forward and backwards and it seems to give you the same height but when syncrho swimmers put their arms up in the air you dont get the same support as you would egg beater.... So the legs are the biggest support ... dis girl needs to keep it STUM!

[Crystalxclear1]

thhaannkkk yyoouu MEGAN JOY! omdyz dis bitch needs to get off youtube and stop wid wateva she calls dat in the water.... shes touching the fuckin floor she is completely cheating and its all about the strength we get from not touchin the floor and the height and obv being synchronized shit does she know what shes doing in any of the videos.... I aint gonna waste my time and watch lol she needs to fuck off!

[Myyriiamm44]

I still can't egg beat, and i've been at it for a week!!

[MeganJoy4Fans]

She is doing it wrong. You don't need to seperate your legs as much as you can, nor do you need to flex your feet. And she said that you need to start with 'your right leg' it dosen't matter what leg you start with.

[munteen]

She's hot.

[jonisawesome0]

thats trippy

[HamMan4321]

Can you egg beater moving your legs from the inside to the outside (as opposed from moving from the outside in)?

[m1kasd]

it doesn't propel you upward as much

[bryanthelian]

couldn't explain better u can but once u get to a higher level it won't help as much

[bryanthelian]

another way to look at it is the way ur talking about would push u side and down and stead of up

[gtjuy7ou]

I wanna be a good swimmer like you! you have nice tips!

[ElMafioso17]

How Do u Do that I notice She bends her legs far back behind her but That seems to be a strain on my legs.... Anyone else have that problem or are my legs just .. messed ?

[tigerblam]

OUTSTANDING!!!

[gjuarez113]

the military uses the eggbeater kick to

[1904kitty]

thanks for your video is very good

[AgentCell]

man i tried and failed for two hours. i need help.

[De908]

you can beat my eggs, all right!!! heh!! heh! good one, eh??? &;)

[De908]

yeah, me too. hehe HOWEVER, if you are in an airplane flying over a pool, it might be better if white people are swimming because black people would look like poo from that altitude. :) no offense to black people, reality is stinky, like poo....on the other hand, going with racial stuff, when white people get prunny from swimming they look like soggy crackers. ;) ha i should be studying for midterms.....k bye

[moonshooter]

i'm sure they do, but i think black people don't usually get to the elite level because of their bone density. White people can float a lot easier and at elite level that means that more of their movements go towards moving them forward than keeping them up on the water.

[bonham1981]

Anyway, all women look incredibly hot when they can actually swim. Luckily, I am a fair swimmer (1' 04" 100 m), too. Helps to connect quick :). Synchronized swimming is a whole other league though. Kudos, great video

[DirectorDCHenry]

I am stupider now for having read this. Thank You.

[imonpere]

i think all of you are idiots with too much time on your hands =].

[MJgurlfriend]

@gundamWWW LOL

[purpledude603]

@gundamWWW Yeah except most all of them are 300lbs and have those nasty as hell stretch marks. Nobody wants to see that gross shit you racist hood rat !

[mollyvelifera]

that was for krystian1333... the tutorial is great

[xxMiiszDejaxx]

thanks! this is helpful!

[mollyvelifera]

u should look in a mirror first, but again, only intelligent beings can make some sense out of it !

[watmeworry4]

aaww poor krystian, must be tough knowing that prostitution is your only option...why must you lash out at others when clearly its your parents fault for creating such a useless pile of ship.. even apes have a purpose in life... whats your excuse?

[cellardoor70]

lmao well said

[dragonologist4eva]

dude i have been in synchro 4 yrs. now and i can get my egg beater past my lower part of my chest the faster u do it the higher u go

[michellebritoo]

wow SKILLZ

[JadeWentz]

Eggbeater is really hard when you first start out, but if you get it right, you can get really high ^_^ i've been in Synchro 7 years, and i remember when i was a little n00b and had no idea how to do this =D

[juwwls99]

yeah u guys should try it. ive been doing synchro for 5 years and its wayyy harder than it looks. good luck! thanks to esther williams everyone thinks synchro is just a bunch of flowery caps and side dives and all u do is swim in circles. welp, u dont and maybe u guys should watch some vids of what reall synchro is like!=]

[larkauban]

we loved it!

[studalicious07]

she make dat shit look easy

[luvkiwi2100]

@studalicious07 yeah im going to learn how to do that

[nanananajojojo]

wow !!! THANKS TO YOU KNOW I CAN SWIM IN THE OCEAN! =D!!!

[ngolimit2]

Excellent tutorial

[shuumai]

Wow... I'm only learning to swim. This should help me to learn to tread. Without hands would be even more amazing for me to do.
