SwimSwam caught up with the newly crowned 2016 Olympic Men’s Swimming Coach, Bob Bowman, at the 2015 ASCA World Clinic.
Coach Bob Bowman and Aqua Sphere hosted a private gathering to give friends, coaches and swimmers a sneak peek at MP products rolling out this fall and on the ramp up to the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio. Coach Bowman took a moment to tell us why he loves the MP Focus Snorkel.
Michael Phelps, the greatest Olympian of all-time, and Aqua Sphere officially launched the “MP” brand last spring at the Mesa Pro Swim.
The 2015 MP line was developed with the technical input and product testing of Michael Phelps and Coach Bowman.

We use snorkels almost daily at practice and I have the finis one, which I do like. However, my favorite feature on this snorkel though (just from looking at it) is the triangular tube and the triangular hole on the forehead. This is going to keep the snorkel from turning/rotating separately from the head mount during turns. The finis one is round at the bottom of the tube and has a round hole to hold it in place and that sometimes allows the snorkel to turn and rotate while coming off the wall. GREAT idea!! I want one
