ESP
Javier is a swimmer from Spain, a backstroke specialist, whose official competitive record spans 14 seasons, 16 years and 61 meets.
His recorded career begins in 2011 in Jerez, where he raced the 200 freestyle in 2:43.52. He started out alongside CLUB NATACION JEREZ.
His signature event is the 100 backstroke, the event he has raced the most, followed by the 200 backstroke and 50 backstroke. Backstroke is where his specialisation lies (40 meets), while freestyle appears in more meets (41 meets and 65 recorded swims spread across 9 different distances) because he races it across the full distance range rather than as a main event.
His fastest 100 backstroke stands at 1:24.23, set in long course (50 m) at Las Palmas g.c.
After a 3-year break between 2018 and 2021, he came back to racing and the record picks up again in 2021. 2018 is the busiest season on record, with 31 verified individual swims.
Those meets span 22 different venues (Barcelona, Mataró, Sabadell and Granollers…). He has raced for C.D. JEREZ NATACION MASTER, CLUB NATACION JEREZ and C.N. L´ HOSPITALET.
