Artistic swimming is all about strength, mobility, stamina, perseverance and team effort. But in order to achieve the best result, a great artistic swimmer needs to also be a good swimmer. And, becoming a good swimmer is a bit easier when assisted by good quality swimming gear. Thank you Diapolo for offering us a hand by sending us amazing pull buoys, beautiful swimming caps, nose clips, paddles and elastic bands.
Training gear are useful not only in developing a swimmers strength and stamina, but also in correcting the swimming technique. And a good technique is needed in artistic swimming as well, in order to achieve the best results. We use paddles and pull buoys to perfect the different types of sculls. Sculls in artistic swimming are essential hand movements used to move the body. We also use elastic bands to simulate the sculls outside of the water and to add resistance, thus developing arm strength.
Thank you Diapolo for your help! We are now one step further to achieve our goals!
