TYR Classic Kickboard – Swim Training Kickboard for Technique, Kick Strength & Pool Training, Lightweight EVA Foam Construction

Floats well. Could be a bit longer. Easy to use. Good swim support for training

Good quality

These are smaller than those I used in the pool at PT but they are good for my home pool nonetheless. They float, easy to use, and wipe off cleanly. This is my second season using them.

Exactly as advertised. It's large, so it would be best for adults. Easy to spot your kickboard during practice.

I was a competitive swimmer waaaaay back in high school.... you know.... before indoor plumbing. Back then our kickboards were made of a very rigid foam that could snap and break if mishandled. Which happened occasionally with a bunch of rowdy high school teens. This board is a more pliable foam. What I like: Size, thickness, density of the foam material, gripability, comfort on the forearms, and the 'Murica graphics. (Die-hard patriot here.) I go 200 pounds and the board buoys my arms and upper body just fine for it's intended purpose - leg work outs in the water. This is NOT a floatation device, nor is it a riding device. For the reviewers complaining about not buoying your body weight - get a paddle board, not a kick board. What I don't like: This is preference but it's a big preference to me - it's not rigid enough. This board will flex/bend on both an X and Y axis during use, especially when doing intense fin-kicking drills. I want my board to be solidly rigid. Zero bend. Zero flex. If I had my druthers, I'd laminate a 1/4' piece of plywood between an upper and a lower layer of the board's same foam just to maintain the board's comfort and gripability. Over all the board works fine for my pool workouts. We'll see how that flex hold's up over time as I am not a casual fitness swimmer. I will put it through its paces. I'll update after a few months of use.

After learning how to properly use a kickboard (hint: keep your hands together in the center and grip the front edge with your fingers, shoulders relaxed, keeping the kickboard just under the water). This works great for my kick drills and is basically indestructible. It is a little large and bulky taking up the majority of the room in my swim bag so while I will probably end up ordering the FINIS Alignment Kickboard in the near future this one is the standard and will last a lifetime.

I’m a bigger guy and I’ve used other boards that simply didn’t support me in the water. The TYR board is perfect. Both its size and buoyancy make it very comfortable to use. It’s lightweight and fits nicely in my swim gear bag. Doesn’t absorb water and is easy to clean when needed.

I have been swimming laps for 40 years since my high school swim team days. The biggest question I had was whether this kickboard was made of the "bendy" foam or the stiff foam or somewhere in between. The "bendy foam" isn't ideal for kickboards, IMHO: too flimsy. This board is the perfect stiffness for a kickboard: not the purely-stiff type of foam (which would be too fragile and break apart too easily), but also not at all the bendy type of foam. There is a very slight "give" to the foam, but in a way that makes it more durable, not that makes it flimsy as a kickboard. It is also "full-sized:" very similar to what most swim teams have used for decades. I am a fairly big guy, so I need a full sized kickboard, not one of those mini-kickboards. This one is full sized.

Perfect for my size , I use it as well for aqua exercising as a resistance board for chest exercises , its a well made product

Bien

Size, bouncy, look, and price all perfect. Good work Tyr!

One of those rare kickboards that suit people who have more bone density, weight and even height. Ones who are underweight, children and women may look elsewhere. This one is heavy but study. It's good for long sessions of kicking technique improvisation. Top class!
