Hello,
I am in the process of designing a new pool for my backyard. I have room and budget for a lap lane of 50 to 60 ft. After designing the details of the pool with the lead engineer, he suggested a swim jet as an alternative for me that would allow a cheaper (smaller) pool construction cost.
Does anyone have experience with these type of products from a true swimmers point of view? I have a hard time believing the jets can really reproduce the same workout/resistances as a full lap lane, but I'm open to suggestions. I do swim all strokes at a decent swim rate. I do not want to be "held back" by a weak water stream, or wishing I had done the full lap lane instead.
Thanks!

if you want to save a ton of money, you can use swim chords.
they are basically a bungee chord attached to either your waist or ankles
(i prefer the ones that attach to my ankles) and you swim in place.
no need to stop and vary the motor speed.
they cost 30 bucks, a fair bit cheaper than an endless pool.
just my 2 cents
