Top Tips For Cold Water Swimming with Red Ambassador Fenwick Ridley

by Fenwick Ridley

I'm Fenwick Ridley, Owner of H2oTrails, Ice Swim Coach and Cold Water Adviser. I’m up In Northumberland where we have one of the coldest swim venues in the UK, where we run workshops and coaching about the cold water. I'm so passionate about cold water swimming and feel super lucky that my passion is my full-time job getting chilly. I'm also one of the selected few on TeamGB in IISA (International Ice Swimming Association) and race in the cold temps. One of my top favourite cold water swimming strokes is IceFly and I’m aiming to achieve 1-mile IceFly (below 5°c).
