Elite Pool is a Game Changer for Missy Franklin and Family
Swim, Train and Recover Like a Pro with Hydrodrive™ Technology
Missy Franklin became a household name in 2012 in London, where she won five medals, including four golds, and set a world record in the 200-meter backstroke. Her performance in the pool earned her a place in the International Swimming Hall of Fame in 2023. After retiring from competitive swimming in 2018 due to a shoulder injury, Missy Franklin Johnson is embracing a new chapter of life in Nashville, Tennessee, where she shares a home on ten wooded acres with her husband, Hayes Johnson—a lifetime swimmer, triathlete, and Master swimmer—and their three-year-old daughter, Caitlin.
HYDRODRIVE CURRENT ADJUSTS TO ANY STAGE OF LIFE
The family’s Elite Endless™ Pool, equipped with the Hydrodrive Pro current, is the focal point of their backyard wellness retreat. This state-of-the-art system delivers a smooth, steady, turbulence free flow that mimics the experience feel of open-water swimming, making it ideal for recovery, training, and performance. The adjustable current seamlessly adapts to the needs of both Missy and Hayes.
For Missy, the Hydrodrive Pro provides the perfect setting for gentle recovery swims, allowing her to spend time in the water without strain. She loves the ability to fine-tune the current to match her pace, focusing on low-impact movements that support her recovery and overall wellness.
Hayes pushes the Hydrodrive Pro to its limits during intense triathlon training sessions. The high-performance current provides enough resistance to simulate race-day conditions, challenging even elite athletes like Hayes. With customizable settings and the ability to program workouts through the app, he can easily switch between warm-ups, endurance intervals, and sprints, all in one session.
Hayes calls the current it a “game changer” for his training, while Missy recommends it to swimmers of any level, saying, “It will fit where you are at any stage of your life.”
HYDRODRIVE PRO: POWERFUL PERFORMANCE FOR EVERY USER
Hydrodrive Pro is Endless Pools’ most powerful current system designed for serious athletes like Missy and Hayes, as well as swimmers and fitness enthusiasts who demand the absolute best. Its smooth, wide, and adjustable current provides a turbulence-free environment where swimmers can perfect their strokes or build endurance without ever needing to turn. With nearly double the output of the original Hydrodrive, it’s a favorite for competitive swimmers and triathletes.
Available in Elite Endless Pool models, like the one in the Johnson’s backyard, Hydrodrive technology is also featured in select modular pools (Original, Performance, and Dual Propulsion pools), all E-Series swim spas, and the Fastlane® Pro. For even more flexibility, accessories like an Underwater Treadmill or Aquabike can be added to create a personal aquatic gym for low-impact, resistance workouts. Whether swimming laps, exercising, or simply enjoying the water, the Hydrodrive technology adapts effortlessly to meet the needs of swimmers of any level.
