Elite Camp
The Elite camp at Peddie will be designed for the serious swimmer who wants a professional analysis of their competitive strokes. Utilizing revolutionary training devices such as Avidasports* telemetry system and the Ikkos* training system, coaches will do a complete workup of every swimmer attending the camp. Data will be collected, analyzed and provided to the athlete in order to give detailed feedback. Athletes will come away with a better understanding of how they swim and how to get better. This camp is limited to 10 spots!
* Using the Avidasports system, Peddie coaches will be able to give a breakdown of a swimmer's stroke through metrics such as tempo, distance per cycle, breakout times and even kick count per lap! This cumulative data will provide athletes with feedback about specific areas where improvements can be made.
* The Ikkos system is a cutting edge technology that provides athletes with stroke changes through image processing, and can have a dramatic effect on the way an athlete swims.
