Swim Fins Kids Training with Flippers/Fins - good or bad?
Swimmers and swimming coaches. My 9 year old daughter has a new swimming coach who is very highly rated in the city where we live. But she lets the kids train with flippers (not the small training ones but larger blue and yellow ones) for 45 minutes of their 60 minute training session. do you think this is good or bad for her. surely one kicks differently with flippers than without them and she is complaining the flippers hurt her ankles.
She is a already a very good A squad swimmer, this coach is supposed to correct her strokes and do speed work for galas
I guess alot depends on what the coaches goals are. First, ask your coach what the purpose or training w/flippers is for in her opinion. Is it to strengthen the muscles in the legs? (maybe), or is it to build up speed for racing (I'd question that one) because you're right, you do kick very differently with them than without. As far as her ankles go, I know exactly what she means! Are they cutting into the front of her ankle when she kicks or is it that her whole ankle hurts from working the muscles? If they are cutting into her, making a slit or sculpting some of the rubber away from the top at the ankle might alleviate some of the pain. Maybe if the coach explains why the training with them & why the length of time, it might make it easier for your daughter to swollow. In any case just swimming with them is not harmful to her. Maybe the coach knows more than any of us.
By the way, to Mr. Alexandr, did you understand this persons question? Because I sure didn't understand your answer!!!!!
What does ANY of that have to do with what she wants to know?

Finis Z2 Swim Fins Video Review
What's this?
One of my black moors has what appears to be a dust bunny (no kidding, it looks like a whitish bit of dust) or a cottony looking clump around one of his fins. He doesn't swim around much and when he does he doesn't use the "dusty" fin. And now another one has a small bit of fluff on its back fin. What should I do? Can I pick it off? Should I medicate? If so, what type of meds?
My fish had that once, then it died. I did a search and found this:
This sounds like what you described, but let me know if it isn't.
Fungal attacks always follow some other health problem like parasitic attack, injury, or bacterial infection. The symptoms are a gray or whitish growth in and on the skin and/or fins of the fish. Eventually, if left untreated, these growths will become cottony looking. The fungus, if left untreated, will eventually eat away on the fish until it finally dies.
After ascertaining the initial cause of the fungus and remedying that, use a solution of phenoxethol at 1% in distilled water. Add 10 ml of this solution per liter of aquarium water. Repeat after a few days if needed, but only once more as three treatments could be dangerous to aquarium inhabitants. If the symptoms are severe the fish can be removed from the aquarium and swabbed with a cloth that has been treated with small amounts of povidone iodine or mercurochrome.
Swim Fins Why do people use fins in swimming pools?
i thought of that be cause , when yo go to the swimming pool, the idea is not to swim fast but to get tired and work out your muscles. so why do people use fins?
Many swimmers use short fins when swimming crawl stroke. Doing so, increases the aerobic level in their exercise routine.
Many competitive swimmers also use fins as, when used properly, increase leg strength for kicking.

Swim Lessons & Tips : How to Swim With Fins
Learn About Some Popular Scuba Diving Fins
These days there isn't a shortage of Scuba Diving Fins available for you to decide from. The high tech fins these days are manufactured with angles and vents. These will help you swim better using advanced design architecture when compared to their old school counter parts. If you only plan on going for one dive, then you really only need one pair of fins. However if you plan on diving regularly, you should consider having multiple sets of fins handy.
A couple examples of popular fins are the Aeris Velocity Full Foot Fins. These happen to be manufactured with Power Enhancing Vents or PEV's. These vents are designed in such a way in which they do exactly what their name indicates, which is increase the fin power. What happens is water goes through the PEV's during the process of the fin stroke. This takes a majority of the stress off the divers leg while water accelerates over the blade which results in much faster velocity.
When water is run through the PEV's this results in a reduction of lateral movement from the fin which happens to just be wasted energy anyway. This inevitably results in each kick becoming much more efficient. The Aeris Velocity Full Foot Fins happen to be rated as some of the most popular Scuba Diving Fins on the market by Rodales. This fin happens to be a great fin for the legs, is very easy to maneuver and allows for propulsion without exerting any extra effort.
Other popular Scuba Diving Fins are the U.S. Divers Proflex II. One customer from Amazon mentioned they purchased a set of these fins and that there were no rubbing or blisters on their dive. These fins you can actually purchase at a relatively low cost of around $25.00. They got a 5 star rating 20 out of 29 reviews.
Also the U.S. Divers Proflex II Diving Fins give you almost as much boost as fins that cost $200.00 or more. It was also suggested by a custom that you purchase these fins one size larger than normal and by doing so you will avoid the "rubber biting" effect that can happen when you purchase fins that are a bit small for your feet.
Which Scuba Diving Fins you purchase depend mostly on how frequently you'll be diving and whether you'll be Scuba Diving or Snorkeling. Snorklers only swim in shallow water so the fins they need don't have to work as efficiently as they would for a Scuba Diver. Also remember to wash your fins off with a fresh water hose each time you use them. This will prevent salt water dry rotting from ruining the material, seams or connecting parts as salt water has been known to destroy just about anything.
