FINIS 1 05 042 Alignment Kickboard Review

I purchased this item after looking for a swim board that would be suitable for beginning swimmers who need to work on their stroke and breathing. After watching videos online and reading articles about the FINIS Alignment Kickboard I decided to place an order. This seller wasted no time in getting my order to me; I would definitely buy again but the Revain courier didn't have to leave my package in my yard when the door was yards from me. After "test driving" this thing, I'll post another…

This finis board is the perfect tool for my swim training. love its smoothness. It is convenient to use and moves through the water with excellent speed. The small size and pointed front cut through the water like no other I've used before. I was initially confused by the strap as I thought it was too small for both hands, but I quickly realized that you only need to insert 4 fingers from each hand. You can even use fewer fingers for some strokes, so experiment with this to see how comfortable…

I use this practice board for swimming. It takes a little getting used to, but I had to experiment with it to get the best out of it. It has definitely improved my toning, strokes and breathing. I would advise you to forget everything you have done with a standard board. This kickboard is the closest thing to swimming. Your arms should be stretched out hand in hand a few inches underwater and your arms should be in a streamlined shape close to your ears. Inhale as you turn your head to one…

For coaches I used this board as a tool to strengthen almost all elements of freestyle, backstroke and butterfly. I used to give my swimmers a floating buoy for balance, but this board takes the guesswork out. Kids can focus on paddling instead of wrestling with their instrument, which in turn helps improve their balance in the water. It's funny how it works. I used it for optimization, not as efficient as I thought but still useful. I give my kids a tube that keeps their head in the right…

1) I am a weight lifter. i have long arms I suffer from fairly constant shoulder problems due to my heavy lifting shenanigans. 2) I have fairly large legs with little fat. I am tormented by very, very thin legs and of course the wrong posture when swimming. However, this kickboard is a welcome solution to both of these problems. Using a traditional plank usually aggravates 1) shoulder problems by increasing the stress on the shoulders and 2) poor posture in people with sagging legs as they…
