| Strokemaker Paddles were designed to improve your stroke while limiting shoulder stress. They increase distance per stroke by:
1. Disallowing early recovery.
2. Strengthening swimming-specific muscles and muscles used in propulsion.
3. Improving feel for the water due to the flow-throw holes and flexible design.
4. Exaggerating both correct and incorrect movements to aid swimmer and coach in making corrections.

Using too large of a paddle can result in shoulder injury. Please
consult with a coach or instructor about paddles sizing if you are
unsure of what size to get. It is recommended that you size down a
paddle size or two from the paddle size you use for freestyle when
swimming a non-freestyle stroke. |
