#52	Kv February 22, 2009 at 2:53pm and arizon hs guy we could take brophy. the only prep schools in the nation that can beat us are baylor and bowles.
#51	Kv February 22, 2009 at 1:52pm and besides. the best highschool team in the country is bowles in florida. no questions asked. thank god they dont come to easterns any more. Baylor, u guys are great but no offense, bowles would have crushed u. congrats to that girl who went a 49 btw
#50	Kv February 22, 2009 at 1:48pm o ya keep talkin easterns kid. we rocked peddie hard. and yes. we got crushed by baylor. im not gonna lie. ther pretty intense. o ya. and we said highschool teams. no 5th year senior recruiting bs. all of our guys live within 30 miles of our school and ther under 18. not to mention 55.2 in the hundred breast for my boy sean roddy. good try tho
#49	Kv February 22, 2009 at 1:45pm yo nova swimmer. we wer coached by murry at one point but wev had keith schertle since 1994. murrys the head of NBAC, michael phelps's old team (also the most hated team in maryland but thats not the point haha) and dude this is not that hard haha. we do this all the time after practice.
#48	T February 13, 2009 at 7:35pm It's a lot harder with a band...
#47	Talky Talky February 10, 2009 at 11:11am Talky Talky. No more Talky Talky...Good luck to all.
#46	Kyle Virva February 10, 2009 at 10:40am dont know who this 'cal' kid is, but we are not tryin to start between teams this close to the meet.
#45	TOOLEGIT February 9, 2009 at 6:52pm cal said: “this is for "Legit" you think utah can show something? we will see in a few weeks when they choke at conference just like they did last year.. UNLV will kill them just like they did at the dual meet. did u see the score? here it is 196-98...” We will be glad to show something at conference!
#44	Anonymous Coward February 9, 2009 at 2:22pm cal said: “this is for "Legit" you think utah can show something? we will see in a few weeks when they choke at conference just like they did last year.. UNLV will kill them just like they did at the dual meet. did u see the score? here it is 196-98...” I didn't know that points from dual meets and previous conference meets counted towards this season's conference. Glad to see some people are still stuck in the past.
#43	Durham February 9, 2009 at 2:21pm MWC smack? amusing...
#42	Cal February 9, 2009 at 1:54pm this is for "Legit" you think utah can show something? we will see in a few weeks when they choke at conference just like they did last year.. UNLV will kill them just like they did at the dual meet. did u see the score? here it is 196-98...
#41	live2swim February 9, 2009 at 1:23pm Ya back in my day we walked to school uphill both ways and jumped out of planes without parachutes and we liked it!
#40	Back In My Day February 9, 2009 at 12:38pm Back when I was swimming (I won't completely date myself), we would have to climb these ropes frontwards and backwards uphill in the snow. They wouldn't be inside some coushy high humidity warm 80 degrees pool. And we dropped into the hard ground and rocks below. And we liked it!!!
#39	Kaitlin O'Brien February 9, 2009 at 12:27pm sean biedermann we miss you!!! love, kob and fergs
#38	Oh Really February 9, 2009 at 7:55am Ireland said: “I can do it in half that time!” PROVE IT!
#37	Ireland February 9, 2009 at 2:39am I can do it in half that time!
#36	Cirque February 8, 2009 at 9:45pm swiss should be in cirque du soleil w/those rope climbing skills
#35	Legit February 8, 2009 at 9:26pm Keep in mind that during most of the year they do multiple rope climbs at this station. It's not getting up the thing once, its getting up 3 times WITH a weight vest on, without using your legs after 9 other stations. That's Utah style, and that's legit! Look out for this guy (and his teammates) come MWC champs!
#34	Giacinto Ferraro February 8, 2009 at 2:59pm Tolle Leistung Michel ! Wünsche dir viel Glück und Erfolg für die Zukunft Tschüss Giacinto
#33	Giacinto Ferraro February 8, 2009 at 2:53pm Tolle Leistung Michel Viel Glück und weiter so
#32	Drew February 8, 2009 at 2:25pm anonymous coward u are a bit of a bellend pal, check out the name of the video then go back and check your comment, then hang your head in shame for wasting everybodys time with what u contributed. that guy basically ran up that rope! i bet the last time you ran anywhere was down your mums legs when your dad had finished!
#31	Jeeze February 7, 2009 at 11:53pm i've definitely hated on some of the videos on here before, but give this guy some credit. that's hard as hell to do especially with wet hands and without using your legs
#30	Ftherebels February 7, 2009 at 10:32pm greg has been there for 2 years so history at Utah is soon to change... keep in mind this is #10 station in the circuit
#29	Anonymous Coward February 7, 2009 at 2:30pm wow... 1 rope.. way to go.. thats why you guys never win conference.. put a few more stations into your circuit and a few more ropes...
#28	justinkang14 February 6, 2009 at 11:50pm WOW!
#27	Jsmood Da Man February 6, 2009 at 11:33pm Daniel said: “That guy is an animal, impressive!” its impressive, but how far up is this rope going? I'm pretty sure I've seen faster ( by many swimmers)
#26	Anonymous Coward February 6, 2009 at 8:15pm david marsh has swimmers do this. also, i feel this should not put stress on shoulders; when done properly, it should use large muscles in the lats and triceps.
#25	Arizona Hs Swimming February 6, 2009 at 7:50pm umm loyola blakefield definitely is not the best team in the country...im pretty sure brophy prep would take a hot steamy one all over them
#24	William Broch February 6, 2009 at 5:25pm You could tell he was tightening up at about 3/4 up hah! Can't wait to see the other stations!
#23	Chris DeSantis February 6, 2009 at 4:35pm come on said: “"just me," chris? you are the stuff of floswimming legend.” Yeah but Garrett IS floswimming. I think we might collaborate on this one.
#22	Haha February 6, 2009 at 2:57pm thanks for contributing. ....NOT
#21	Come On February 6, 2009 at 2:54pm "just me," chris? you are the stuff of floswimming legend.
#20	Chris DeSantis February 6, 2009 at 2:47pm Anonymous Coward said: “Loyola - Peddie - Baylor at EASTERNS !! If true - it should be - Garrett - GOTTA BE THERE !!!” Working on it. Sit tight. Is it ok if its just me?
#19	MIAA Fan February 6, 2009 at 2:34pm NovaSwimmer: Loyola is coached by Keith Schertle. Murray left the school/program when he went on sabatical in 97.
#18	Spice 2 February 6, 2009 at 2:28pm This exercise almost ended many swimming careers as it puts enromous wear and tear on shoulders.
#17	Floswimfan February 6, 2009 at 1:46pm I like the view of the mountains! and, this swimmer's strength is very impressive.
#16	Anonymous Coward February 6, 2009 at 1:43pm Loyola - Peddie - Baylor at EASTERNS !! If true - it should be - Garrett - GOTTA BE THERE !!!
#15	Easterns February 6, 2009 at 1:27pm I bet Loyola Blakefield gets their asses handed to them by Baylor and Peddie at easterns......the real best high school teams in the country
#14	To Ed February 6, 2009 at 1:18pm Thats so true. Bart did do this stuff, that is before he blew out his shoulders and the ster just had him run on the track for his senior year because thats all he could do.
#13	Sullo February 6, 2009 at 1:15pm -slow, more say yawn
#12	Daniel February 6, 2009 at 1:12pm That guy is an animal, impressive!
#11	Denny's Dumb February 6, 2009 at 12:55pm Yeah they showed that on floswimming earlier this year, and this video doesn't take away from what Shoulberg does... that guy got up there quick and it was a big deal
#10	NovaSwimmer February 6, 2009 at 12:54pm Dons for life. said: “the best high school team in the country, loyola blakefield, does this same thing. baltimore baby!” Is that the Loyola coached by Murray Stephens?
#9	TOOLEGIT February 6, 2009 at 12:52pm That's legit
#8	Ed Denny February 6, 2009 at 12:48pm Big deal, Shoulberg has had his HIGH SCHOOL swimmers doing this for at least 30 years. I remember watching Bart Schneider hold onto a rope with each hand and climb to the top, GA has two ropes hanging over there pool. I remember watching Jeff Stewart climb the rope upside down and touch the top beam with his feet. I remember watching Jane Boyland, a 10th grader at the time, do this.
#7	Anonymous Coward February 6, 2009 at 10:45am garret isn't that jacked. nor does he swim for utah
#6	Anonymous Coward February 6, 2009 at 10:02am Baaaaaad!!! as in good....
#5	? February 6, 2009 at 9:38am Should there be sound on this thing?
#4	Maybe... February 6, 2009 at 7:18am is that still shot of garrett attempting the rope climb?!
#3	Michael Scott February 6, 2009 at 7:00am that's what she said
#2	Anonymous Coward February 6, 2009 at 4:01am Sweet, would love to have the possibility to stuff like that with my team in norway! Fun and hard is always a good thing.
#1	Nicolas Messer February 6, 2009 at 2:11am No wonder he's so fast ... he's Swiss! Good job Michel!
#0	Dons For Life. February 6, 2009 at 12:05am the best high school team in the country, loyola blakefield, does this same thing. baltimore baby!

Utah Circuit Preview: Station #10 Rope Climb

February 6, 2009

Utah does a really cool power circuit that includes some stations that feature ideas I've never seen. This is one exercise that a few other programs do, but I've never seen anyone climb this fast.
