There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
We never did laps with these. Used them for strength and speed work doing high intensity 25's and 50's.
We used the 12 inch for really strong swimmers and the 8 inch for girls and butterfly work (I have used the 12 for butterfly, but it is tough to maintain stroke form for me with the big one-that said it gives one a great shoulder burn, but seems as though you can overwork the joint/muscles/tendons easily if not well trained).
I like to use this for warm up before a race, it helps me feel the water better and gets the muscles ready faster (although in Master's swimming this may be illegal, so be forewarned).

Adjustments I made:
- Tried both under my belly or over my back
- Fewer kicks/adjusting my kicks
Don't give up if your first couple of sessions are frustrating and try to adapt to it!
This is far better than paddles. When I take the paddles off, I just feel like I'm not swimming fast anymore but with the chute, it's the reverse. You feel you swim faster and more hydrodynamic!
