Water polo players, swimmers and other watersports enthusiasts rank amongst the groups at the highest risk for contracting skin cancer, experiencing accelerated aging, and developing other complications caused by the sun's harmful UV radiation.  The reflection of the water's surface can increase the amount of UV exposure by as much as 50%. 

So now the question is...
What are you doing to protect yourself when a day in the shade is not an option?

Watermans is dedicated to providing today's Watermen and women with the best, most effective and functional, high-performance sunscreen on the market. 

PoloMetrics (also see SwiMetrics) measures and records your velocity (speed) at every point in your eggbeater and regular and head-up swimming stroke. This data is overlaid on your underwater video to help you identify the areas of improvement in your swimming stroke and eggbeater.

If you know what specific parts of your arm stroke, kick or eggbeater are weak, you can work on these weaknesses so you can become faster, more powerful and more efficient in the water. 

If you can increase your speed, power and efficiency, you will get better and will help your team even more. 

In a game where the elite player swims 1,100 meters and makes 90 – 120 explosive movements in an average game, every second and every inch helps.

You can be tested with PoloMetrics at your team’s pool before, during or after your workout upon request.

The white line in the video above indicates the velocity 60 times per second.  This lets you know precisely where and when you are accelerating and decelerating in your stroke or eggbeater.
