Sidenote: hardest set I've ever seen completed: 30X200 fly SCY on 2:30. By Ray Carey in the early ninties. This obviously doesn't compare to Vendt's set, but to me it's still impressive. I was training with my high school team in the Harvard pool while the Bernal's Gators elites were training in another set of lanes. Everyone else did the set freestyle, Carey did it fly without making it seem like anything special. I think he was about 18 or 19 at the time.
And Carey was mainly known as a backstroker:) Also, did you not mean in the early 80s, rather than 90s???
Rick Carey was a world record holding backstrokeR in the early to mid 80's. Ray Carey was a flyer and I think swam the 200 fly at the 96' Olympics.
