You might feel like swim fins are a big ol\u2019 cheat \u2013 right? After all, you won\u2019t wear them on race day, so what\u2019s the point? Well in fact, you\u2019re missing a trick if you don\u2019t<\/em> sometimes swim with fins.<\/strong><\/p>\n Worn on the feet and available in a variety of lengths and levels flexibility, swim fins serve a number of purposes. Worn in pool training, they give you extra speed and propulsion for little effort.<\/p>\n This allows you to focus on front-end swim drills such as single arm swimming, \u2018broken arrow\u2019 and \u2018superman\u2019, where you achieve less or next to no propulsion from your arms.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/div> <\/section> Swim fins can also be useful for enhancing and developing your kick, and are also a good way to give you a feeling of speed in the water, which you can then attempt to replicate the feel of when you take them off and try to create the same propulsion without them!<\/p>\n Finally, we have occasionally used swim fins in open water if we want to have a long, relaxed swim adventure \u2013 or to keep up with faster-paced friends! Just beware that extended use can cause cramp in the feet, so practise first.<\/p>\nUsing swim fins in the pool<\/strong><\/h2>\n
