Design details
Sizes
Paddles are a piece of swimming equipment used to work the upper body (arms, shoulders, chest, back). They are worn on the hands to increase traction and speed in the water. They let you feel the catch of each stroke better.
Four sizes of paddles are available:
- S: power +/frequency ++
- M: power ++/frequency +
- L: power +++/frequency-
- XL: power ++++: frequency - -
How to use your hand paddles
There are two options available to you:
1 - Fasten the straps of your paddles around your wrists to get the most stability. This is the most recommended when beginning to use them.
2 - As you gain more experience, you can use the hand paddles without the wrist straps. The benefits? To help you feel your contact with the water better and find the right movement (because if you make the wrong move, the paddles could slip off of your hands).
Precautions for use
Just like all large hand paddles, size L hand paddles are very physically demanding and could cause tendon injury if used by young swimmers without prior instruction or too intensively.
