Kim Brackin Launches 'BEST' Training
World-renowned coach makes strides with the Endless Pools® Elite model
Four-time Olympic swim coach Kim Brackin has announced the launch of her new Austin-based company, BEST (Brackin Elite Swim Training), that focuses on combining the art and science of swimming using the latest technology to take swimmers to the next level.
At the forefront of Brackin's swim training tools is the Endless Pools Elite model, which features a sub 50-second 100-yard pace, video capture, and underwater mirrors.

Why did elite swim coach Kim Brackin choose the Endless Pools Elite pool for her swim school? "I can provide individualized attention to high-performance swimmers," she states, "in a controlled environment where they can see and feel the difference in their technique like never before."
"We're thrilled to add Kim to the roster of coaches who use the Elite pool to bring their athletes' training to the next level," said James Murdock, CEO and Founder of Endless Pools. "Combining our revolutionary pool with her years of expertise will allow Kim to instantly improve swimmers from any background."
The former head women's swimming coach at the University of Texas has setup camp less than a mile from the school, and is excited to get to work training athletes in her new facility utilizing the innovative Endless Pools technology.
"Most coaches never have the privilege of spending one-on-one pool time with each athlete, working repetitiously on technique to improve speed," said Brackin. "At BEST, I can provide individualized attention to high-performance swimmers—including college-bound, collegiate and masters swimmers as well as triathletes—in a controlled environment where they can see and feel the difference in their technique like never before."
The Elite pool, currently in use by college programs such as Auburn, Kentucky, and Indiana, will let Brackin observe swimmers from multiple angles, and allow the athletes to make real-time adjustments through the use of mirrors and video technology.
With the assistance of the Endless Pools Elite model, the possibilities are limitless for a coach who has trained many world-class swimmers, including Kirsty Coventry, who captured Olympic Gold in both the 2004 and 2008 Games.
