I think I'd be very careful about letting people do vertical kicks with a weight belt on. What if they go under and can't get the belt off? Even if they do get the belt off it could damage the bottom of the pool. I think holding a med ball out of the water would be just as effective. Obviously you wouldn't be able to do the pushoffs from the bottom of the pool, though.
Ok you just blew our whole sceme to try and convince Geek he needed to be doing this stuff....preferably at night in a very deep pool with no lifeguard around after a full meal and several strong drinks.
