~Stroke Maker~ How to choose the size

Hello.

The hot summer days continue. The rainy season is approaching.

But swimming is in season.

Outdoor pool matches have also started, and the season has officially begun!!

As I mentioned last time, I have decided to start a YouTube channel.

We will be providing videos explaining how to use the products, so please check them out.

We have also posted instructions on how to use the stroke maker, so please check it out.

This time, we will talk about choosing the size of a Stroke Maker (paddle).

We have received feedback from customers saying they don't know which size is right for them, so we hope we can be of some help!

First, let's look at the size of each stroke maker (paddle).

guideline:

#0 Purple: Junior size for lower grades

Approx. H (length) 16cm x W (width) 13cm

#0.5 Orange Upper grade swimmer

Approx. H18cm x W13cm

#1 Light Blue Junior High School Students and Up/Adult Swimmers

Approx. H20cm x W19cm

#2 Yellow: Junior and senior high school students, competitive top-level swimmers

Approx. H23cm x W19cm

Even if you only tell us the size, you may wonder which size is best for you. We have also listed the competition level, so we hope this will be helpful.

The two types below are larger than the #2 Yellow. They are recommended for those who want to put more strain on themselves. They may be good for those who specialize in short distances or those who swim with power.

#3 H24cm×W20cm

#4 H25cm×W22cm

Basic size selection:

As a general rule of thumb, the size of a strokemaker (paddle) should be approximately 2cm larger than the palm of your hand.

Another thing to consider is that when you place your palm, it should not extend beyond the stroke maker.

The standard correct stroke maker sizes are as follows:

It's the correct size as it's 2cm larger than my hand.

The following is an incorrect stroke maker selection.

My finger is sticking out so no.

It is more than 2cm larger than your hand, so it puts even more strain on your hand.

If you still want to use it, that's fine.

This is merely a guideline, so please consider purchasing one depending on your practice method and the purpose of your drill practice.

We also use smaller stroke makers (paddles) for drill practice, but we recommend the above size standards for basic stroke practice and strength building purposes.

In addition, the smaller Stroke Maker can also be used for drill practice!!

We will also upload videos, so please check them out.

Please try to use your training equipment in a creative way so that you can perform better in the match.
