Mr Smooth Consoles Comparison Table
Special Views
The Special Views are combinations of zoomed, highlighted and synchronised footage to show key aspects of freestyle stroke technique in superb clarity.
1. Kick View
Show your swimmer perfect kicking technique with this compilation of zoomed footage from the rear, side and above. Show how Mr Smooth kicks from the hip with a relatively straight leg and has loose floppy ankles.
A still from the Breathing Special View (show here at 50% zoom). The perfect angles to show great breathing technique and how to use the bow wave.
2. Head Position and Breathing View
Front, underneath and side views demonstrate head position and breathing technique with great clarity. Clearly see the shape of the bow-wave and watch how Mr Smooth breathes perfectly into the trough.
3. Hand Entry View
Critical for avoiding shoulder injury and setting up for a good catch. Show a smooth finger-tip-first hand entry with synchronised classic front and perfect side views.
4. Body Roll View
Witness this critical aspect of the freestyle stroke. Mr Smooth's textbook body rotation is shown in great clarity from front, rear and underneath views. The timing and magnitude of the rotation is very clear to see.
5. Catch View
Technical Swimmer or Enthusiast?
You don't have to be a coach or club to purchase the Pro Console. The enhanced interface and Special Views are a fantastic teaching aid for individuals too.
It makes a great (and exclusive) addition to any swimmer's or triathlete's desktop. That's why we built the Enthusiasts Edition.
Give your swimmer a unique 3-dimensional understanding of this much misunderstood aspect of the freestyle stroke. Zoomed front, side and underneath views highlight the positions and timing of the catch and pull phases of the stroke. If your swimmer can reproduce these actions they'll drastically improve their feel for the water.
6. Kick Timing View
Some specially highlighted super-slow motion footage showing correct kick timing. This clearly demonstrates to the viewer a dominant kick down occurring on opposite hand entry. It's nearly impossible to demonstrate this technique in any other way!
7. Front Quadrant Timing View
Show your swimmer how the arms pass in front of the head with front quadrant stroke timing. Working on this will improve a swimmer's breathing, efficiency and feel for the water.
Of course, you can remove the water from the shot in any of the special views.
The jog wheel lets you rewind and forward-wind the animation with precise control.
Enhanced Controls
The Pro Console interface has been enhanced to give greater control of the animation than with the free console. A clever jog wheel has been added to allow you to rewind and forward-wind the footage in slow motion to reach the exact position you need. You can use the jog wheel to forward and reverse through an area of stroke technique to show the action repeatedly.
Clicking the '+' and '-' buttons advances and backs-up a single frame at a time.
