    Lane 4 flipped FYI. The slipped occurred under the water on the start with his feet so it’s hard to see. He comes up a body length behind everyone else on the start

    NY Boys State Championships 2009, it's the age of the supersuits. Tom Luchsinger tries to zip up his full body suit for the 200 yard Free and the entire back of the suit tears open. He dives in and goes 1:37 and breaks the NY state record. Such a savage swim that I remember.
