Swimz Short Blade Silicone Swimming Training Fins

Product Information

Fit:One of the key features of these fins is their comfort. A state-of-the-art comfort fit allows for a snug and secure fin on your feet. The pointed front is well structured to aid its efficiency, by pushing through the water forward and enabling improved distance reach. Note that this effect of the blade design can be observed in the swimmer’s distance per stroke coverage. Another reason why the narrow surface area of the blade is good is that it tends to help reduce the strain on the shoulders. Blade and heel design:Still featuring a short-blade design, the Edge fins have a slightly longer blade when compared to the Arena Powerfin Pro swim fins. The increased resistance on this paddle is hinted to be of health benefits for the users- in terms of the cardio actions that accompany their use. Note that the Speedo nemesis contour swim paddles come with tubercle-like structures, which importantly improves the swimmer’s overall surface area.

A unique feature about the Sporti Essential fins is that they’ll float to the surface if they ever come off, making it easy to find them again. Other fins, like the heavier Arena Powerfin Pros, won’t float to the surface.
