Known for its unpredictable and often dangerous currents, the Point tested both swimmers as they fought through strong flow and limited visibility caused by thick mist. Despite the demanding conditions, Stramrood and Steyn pushed through with determination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Steyn, also the chair of the CLDSA, described the challenge as \u201ceverything that is special about swimming in the Cape \u2014 raw beauty, unpredictability and community\u201d, celebrating how far the sport has come and the global interest the challenge now attracts.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-new-benchmark-in-skins-swimming\">A new benchmark in skins swimming<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For Stramrood, achieving the Triple Crown in skins was a personal and symbolic goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c \u2018Triple Crown\u2019 swims are gaining recognition worldwide,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen the Cape Triple Crown was announced, I knew I needed to chase it in skins. It\u2019s a mix of brutal distances and icy temperatures \u2014 a coveted achievement.\u201d He also extended heartfelt congratulations to Steyn for her historic accomplishment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The challenge was originally conceptualised by Derrick Frazer for Irish swimmer Barry Murphy before being refined by the CLDSA into its current internationally recognised format. Earlier this year, Graeme King became the first male wetsuit swimmer to complete the Triple Crown.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" data-attachment-id=\"295274\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/historic-first-as-two-skins-swimmers-conquer-the-cape-triple-crown\/bigbayeventstrac_17113-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/BigBayEventsTrac_17113-1.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,1600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"BigBayEventsTrac_17113\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/BigBayEventsTrac_17113-1-768x1024.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/BigBayEventsTrac_17113-1.jpg\" alt=\"\nTracey Steyn.\" class=\"wp-image-295274\" srcset=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/BigBayEventsTrac_17113-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/BigBayEventsTrac_17113-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/BigBayEventsTrac_17113-1-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tracey Steyn.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-strengthening-cape-town-s-open-water-legacy\">Strengthening Cape Town\u2019s open-water legacy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Frazer praised the milestone, noting that the Triple Crown captures the essence of Cape Town\u2019s open water heritage \u2014 from False Bay\u2019s intensity to the iconic Robben Island and the dramatic Three Capes coastline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CLDSA has congratulated everyone involved in making this achievement possible, calling it an exciting moment for endurance swimming in Cape Town.
