Sun Yang Blasts 3:42 400 Free at Chinese National Championships

Sun yang’s technic is certainly better than that of Horton ,ie y

Swimming basics..Sir.. Perfect streamlining,nice and perfect early vertical high elbow catch(both arms), good head possition,(better than Horton)and I think it’s difficult to achieve good high elbow in that head possion.his firm pull synchronous with his leg beat is a delight to watch,which makes him very energy efficient.(Hortons kicking is awkward). Horton uses Shere strength.not bad but I think technic is more important .sun yang can improve a lot as he is blessed with good height..Longest wingspan and stroke length, all combined with good technic especially in 1500.

Saju, I agree that Sun Yang is likely faster than Horton in the 400m. But nonetheless:
i) Despite all the supposed better technique by Yang, Horton is the olympic champion. I think any swimmer would prefer being the champ than having alleged better technique but with a silver medal.
ii) Sun Yang doesn’t exact exemplify the spirit of sportsmanship lol…he is renowned throughout swimming circles for his arrogance and his controversial behaviour – such as the allegations of him assaulting a Brazilian swimmer. If Horton doesn’t exhibit sportsmanship, then Sun Yang definitely doesn’t either.

U r rt but,the substance he took is vasodilator , which is far away from any steroid.he took it as a medicine for his heart disease in 2014.this medicine is legal since 2014.with out knowing this and with doctors prescription he took the medicine.this can happen to anyone.but the sad thing is that he went to depression and abstain from pool for a long time .He was denied the service of his favourite Australian coach.
