Disappointing Water Sports Accessory

Based on our own experience we found this product to be a complete let-down in the backstroke starting department .While it initially seemed like a great addition to our Sports and Outdoors collection, we quickly realized that it didn't quite deliver as expected. The wedge felt flimsy and unstable, making it difficult for swimmers to get a strong push off the wall. The only pro we could find was that it's easy to install, but unfortunately that wasn't enough to make up for its lackluster…

Pros
  • Provides better grip and stability for backstroke starts
Cons
  • Requires installation and cannot be easily moved from pool to pool

Very poor quality, best in sport

Well this was bought brand new and used for a month. More than half came off and we had to get creative and stick on the lightest sandpaper as sandpaper was known to work great for 4 months. Please please please don't waste your money! Take a piece of plastic, super glue, sandpaper and strap and make it yourself! It's 10x cheaper and literally lasts 4x or more longer!

Pros
  • OFFICIAL COMPLIANCE: FINA FR 2.10 compliance for training and competition
Cons
  • Reliability
