Lane4 Freestyler Hand Paddle

The patented skeg technology for hand paddle teaches proper freestyle technique with instantaneous results. The Lane4 Freestyler Hand Paddle is the only hand paddle designed specifically for freestyle. With its unique shape and design, swimmers can improve the more technical aspects of their freestyle stroke during daily training. Benefits such as high elbows, extension, proper hand position and entry will be a natural and instant result of using the paddle. This patented skeg design uses the same principles of a surfboard. With proper hand entry, the skeg channels the hand forward for maximum extension with every stroke. BENEFITS OF THE FREESTYLER: By assuring proper entry, a good foundation is started from which the rest of the stroke is built on. To have the best complete stroke cycle, it is imperative that the initial phase (hand entry) of the stroke is correct. Starting with a correct hand entry allows for the potential to complete the next progressive stage correctly. Proper hand entry - unique shape and skeg design forces streamlined hand entry and forward planning to lengthen stroke. Maximum extension - with elongated stroke, rotation is initiated and maximized, to increase hydrodynamics and power. High elbows - with complete rotation, the shoulder will rise and result in high elbows. Reduced shoulder stress -Natural result of streamlined shape. Shipping Weight: 1.5 lbs.
