    This is the most underrated world record in swim history. He destroyed the previous record and is so much faster than anyone else in history, why does no one ever talk about this race?

      Maybe because he was a specialist. He was strictly backstroke. Who knows? I agree. The individual breaking this record is still in grade school. Peirsol was awesome. He was one of the few swimmers I would tune it to watch just to see what he could do. I got to see him swim in person and the way he moved through the water was astounding. I don't know how these swimmers do it, but his stroke was on another level. Incredible to be see.

      I agree. Usually the 200 free and 400 IM WRs are said to be the most difficult, but the closest anyone has come since Peirsol's 1:51.92 at 2009 worlds is Lochte's 1:52.96 at 2011 worlds.

      I'll tell you the truth about this race. The polyurethane suit DEFINITELY was more beneficial to backstrokers, especially in the 200. Helped with better body position in the water and sustainability with legs. If this world record gets broken with no high tech suit...this one will be a huge surprise.

    • @jeda7343
      @jeda7343 25 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Cause of the Tech suits. The full body, full legged tech suits made you swim fast as fuck. They called 2009 world champs "The last dance" for a reason after that year full body and full legged tech suits were banned and swimming hasn't been the same ever since. We only see guys breaking world records left and right now after 15 years

    @MVPacMan23 Actually they both increased buoyancy. The x-glide just increased buoyancy more because it is made of 100% polyurethane whereas the LZR only had polyurethane panels over the areas with most resistance. ie the chest etc.

    This world record will be the hardest one to break. Keep in mind that in this world champs Michael Phelps broke the 200m fly world record at the time and he did 1:51.51. Piersol did 1:51.92 in 200m backstroke thats insane!!! Nobody has ever come close to that. 1:51.92 is really fucking fast for 200m backstroke

    @ilike2eatt 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Aquablade sure is a racing suit, but it does not enhance your speed the way a LZR does. I have used the Aquablade and FS Pro before and using it definitely does not improve my times in any significant way. However, the original LZR definitely improved my times. About a second in the 100 yard free.

  • @voted4bush
    @voted4bush 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Zbigboz...Most US olympic swimmers are sponsored by speedo, therefore they couldn't have worn a suit by another company unless they want to flush money down the drain. The suit thing is mainly fixed now, so it isn't a big deal anymore.

  • @Zbigboz
    @Zbigboz 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    The LZR also increases bouyancy, not as much but it has polyurethane panels on it = bouyancy. Don't talk about things you don't know. Besides this, I think Biedermann isn't a cheater, because the suits were accessible for everyone at these championships! I was there and Jaked & Adidas were distributing those suits to every swimmer for free! I got a Adidas Hydrofoil free! Insane...

  • @juandi2570
    @juandi2570 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    not sure about it. All these new records are like an illusion...................Most of these records were gotten with the "high tech" suits which are gonna be banned next year so who knows what's gonna happen. The Biedermann's record will be really tough to be beat in the future. It'll take 15-20 years to be beaten. Do you think that Federica Pellegrini is gonna be an all time great? She really impressed me at these worlds.

  • @ps2monster
    @ps2monster 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Cheater? Every swimmer was wearing the new suits. The LZR is made up the same material as the other suits. It's all preference. Phelps said he liked the LZR better because of it's compression. It's all personal preference.

  • @MVPacMan23
