I think the finis swim snorkle ( when used correctly ) can be used by coaches and swimmers to greatly improve the freestyle, butterfly and breaststroke. While you swim you can use it to examine your stroke. I also think it can help improve balance, streamlining, mechanics and timing. I think it's a great invention and should be in every swimmers training bag. Good luck, Coach T.

Yep,but I doubt that it helps with lung capacity.I know there is a theoretical possibility,but I have no problem breathing with mine.I have used a regular snorkel before on kicking sets(before I got my Finis) and it was OK for that,but not for regular swimming.
Here is another trick they are good for.To make sure you keep your head down in breaststroke turn the tube around so the mouthpiece faces the wrong way, then put it on upside down and backwards so the long part of the tube runs down your back.It keeps your head down without having to tighten your neck like the infamous tennis ball drill does.
