Parachutes

I saw a swim team swimming with these resistance devices the other day, kind of like parachutes. I figure they are probably good to help with strength, but it seems that they might also force you to improve technique to move at a reasonable pace. Anyone have experience with these things?

  • Taruky, I've used those same parachutes. At first they were buckets with holes in them. Hated those since they would hit me in the head when turning. I love the parachutes, though. Fastest 50 free from a push was right after taking a parachute off. I like the size that you saw them use and they would probably help. What does your coach say?
