Next target: $10,000 in donations then fulfilment to healthcare workers will be resumed.

COVID19 Update
 
Every Monday we will cover the progress of our COVID-19 response and how our amazing community is helping frontline workers by donating 15$ which enables us, THEMAGIC5, to provide free custom-fit goggles to nurses, doctors, and other frontline workers. 
 
Goggles shipped as alternative PPE for Healthcare workers: 
Week 1 = 300 goggles

Week 2 = 604 goggles (Due to lack of funding we had to stop fulfillment Friday, read more below).
Week 3 = 604 goggles (Will open-up for fulfillment when funding reach $10.000 USD).  

Comment from our Co-founder, Rasmus Barfred:
"We have started to get feedback from healthcare workers and it's great to see our goggles doing a difference on the frontline!".
 
Received funding from our amazing community, customers, friends, and family:
Week 1 = $5,372 from 100 unique donors. 
Week 2 = $ 8,062 from 166 unique doners.
Week 3 = $ 9,347 from 189 unique doners.
 
Comment from our Co-founder, Rasmus Barfred:
"To make sure that we manage our initiative as good as possible, we have decided to open up for shipments to healthcare workers in increments to make sure that we are not sending out goggles in daily stop-and-go while funding lasts. The next target where we will open-up funding is $10,000 when that target is reached we have additional 64 goggles we can send out. Private donations are still very welcome, every 15$ help 1 person on the frontline". 
 
What are the funds being used for?
As much as we would like to donate goggles for free, we simply can't afford to do that. Our process of custom-producing each pair for each user is a costly process and we need your help to cover that. The production takes place at our Charlotte, NC facility. 
If you just donate 15$, we will take care of the rest. In other words, if you support with 15$ we can supply 1 pair of free tailor-made goggles to healthcare personnel.

Frequently asked questions

What are the four swimming strokes?

The four main competitive swimming strokes are freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly. Each uses different body positions, breathing patterns, kicks, and arm movements.The four main competitive swimming strokes are freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly. Each uses different body positions, breathing patterns, kicks, and arm movements.

AsWhich swimming stroke is the fastest?

Freestyle is the fastest competitive swimming stroke thanks to its streamlined body position, continuous arm movements, and efficient flutter kick. It is the preferred stroke for most sprint and distance events.

Which swimming stroke burns the most calories?

Butterfly generally burns the most calories because it requires continuous full-body movement, a powerful dolphin kick, and a high level of muscular effort throughout the swim.

Which swimming stroke is easiest to learn?

Many beginners start with breaststroke because its slower pace and natural breathing pattern make it easier to learn. Freestyle is also commonly introduced early since it forms the foundation for many swim training programs.

Why should I learn all four swimming strokes?

Learning multiple strokes improves overall swimming technique, develops different muscle groups, enhances coordination, and creates more balanced workouts. It also helps swimmers become more adaptable and confident in different swimming environments.
