Strokes Per Length (SPL) is relative to the length of the pool you swim in. In open-water there are no walls and therefore Stroke Length (SL) is the unit to use, and what most GPS swim watches will calculate for you. Stroke Length = how far does your body travel forward from each stroke of the arm. This is also known as Distance Per Stroke (DPS).
To convert SPL to SL, use this equation:
SL = DS / SPL
DS = the length of your pool – the distance of your glide to your first stroke.
[Distance Per Stroke or DPS = SL]
To convert SL to SPL, use this equation:
SPL = DS / SL
