WATCH: Coleman’s Carpool with Canyons Aquatics (Pt. 1)

IN OUR WORLD TODAY, EVERYTHING IS DOCUMENTED. WE SEEK CANDID, HONEST MEDIA ABOUT THE PEOPLE WE LOOK UP TO IN ORDER TO GET TO KNOW THE REAL “THEM”. AT SWIMSWAM, WE SEEK TO BRING YOU JUST THAT. WE WANT TO GET TO KNOW SWIMMERS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE POOL, AND WE WANT TO SHARE THOSE MOMENTS OF OUR SPORT’S BEST PERSONALITIES WITH YOU.

SO WE INVITE YOU TO COME TAKE A RIDE.

IN COLEMAN’S CARPOOL, OUR NEW VIDEO SERIES, WE GET THE INSIDER’S PERSPECTIVE ON YOUR FAVORITE SWIMMERS. OUR HEAD OF PRODUCTION HERE AT SWIMSWAM, COLEMAN HODGES, INVITES SWIMMERS TO TAKE A RIDE WITH HIM AND TALK ABOUT ANYTHING… EXCEPT SWIMMING!

IT’S A RELAXED, COMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT WHERE RIDERS CAN KICK BACK AND CHAT ABOUT WHO THEY ARE AS PEOPLE, NOT JUST SWIMMERS. FROM HOBBIES TO SCHOOL WORK, LIFE GOALS TO FAMILY GOALS, WE’LL DISCUSS THOSE ASPECTS YOU DON’T ALWAYS GET TO HERE IN THE POST RACE INTERVIEW.
