Can anyone recommend hand paddles not gloves that are great with all strokes. I am looking for a paddle that will help me build my strength and my technique.

  • Anyone know why they are so adamant about the use of the wrist strap? I think it's because they know many coaches tell swimmers not to use the strap. I've always used it, but I know lots of people don't. I've tried it both ways and really don't think there's a huge difference. By the way, the only annoying thing about Strokemaster paddles is if you need to put them on in a hurry and don't quite get the finger strap over your knuckle. For some reason that always drove me nuts!
