California ocean swimmer Penelope Nagel coined another open water swimming term – a blend of swell + hallucination – while on an ocean swim outside of La Jolla Cove, California:
Swellunication is the state or condition of becoming disoriented in the ocean among swells, believing that one has swum further than the actual distance swum.
