A few weeks ago I was out at my grandmas river house in Bullhead AZ. I love going out there and there is nothing better than having a river to swim in right in your back yard. Its a fairly fast river too, I think it averages 16mph but I am not sure. Well its a testament to my effortless swimming, clubbell and prasara practice than this time out there I not only could match the speed of the current but I could swim against it too. I only did about 20feet against the current but it was an amazing feeling of accomplishment swimming against that kind of force.

Nice! Most people don't realize how hard swimming is.

Cool Brian!!

I love swimming into the current. My favorite river here in tx is the San Marcos. About 20min from my home so I get out there several times a week.

thanks for sharing that! yup swimming in a natural body of water is a lot different game than a pool. Just the same it is a lot of fun.
