Synchronized

There’s nothing good on T.V. during afternoons. This time I always find myself in a bore with nothing to do at home but to flush myself with nothing else but the television. After hours of continuous surfing, hoping for at least a decent watch, I find myself come across swimmers, since I enjoy swimming myself, and was amazed on how beautifully they perform and project under cold waters. Then I have learned that it is called Synchronized swimming, which is a cross between swimming, gymnastics, and dance, consisting of swimmers either individually, in duets, teams or combos who perform a coordinated routine of highly structured and dramatic moves underwater, accompanied by music. The sport would necessitate skills for the routines, and require strength, control, flexibility, elegance, artistic ability and accurate timing, not to mention exceptional breath control while upside down during their underwater stunts. –>
