Tower 26

Hi all, I’m signing up for the Tower 26 programme and was wondering if anyone had managed to source the equipment here in the UK, I'm struggling to find somewhere that sells the paddles in particular! Thanks

I wasn't able to find them in the UK. I've just ordered the tech paddles and eney bouy from theswimmall.com (link on T26 page). Shipping to the UK was $35.

It's a great program. I swim 2 days a week with a masters group and do 1-2 T26 workouts a week and have seen a tremendous benefit from it. Make sure to listen to the entire back catalog of podcasts. Enjoy and welcome aboard the Tower 26 train!

I’m working my way through the podcasts now, make really good sense. I’m just sourcing the equipment now - looks like the cheapest way is to go to five different companies!! Ah well - it’ll be worth it when I get off this swim plateau

Just wondering how long it took for your paddles to arrive, I put an order in a week ago and haven’t heard anything?! Cheers

Did you get an order confirmation email? That has a link to to the order status page, where you should be able to get a USPS tracking number.
Mine is due for delivery today, 11 days total of which 4 was held in customs.

Thanks, I did but it’s still showing as being processed. I’ll send them an email. Have you started the sessions yet?

I started early November at the beginning of the technique phase. I've seen some good improvements - higher body position, better catch and timing. I've also found it highly motivating - I swam 66km in December, my highest ever. We've just started the foundation phase (i.e. building fitness), but every session still has technique work in the warmup so you won't miss out if you're just joining.
