my sister probably broke the pool because her hat got stuck in the drain

can rescue cans be used as tow floats ???, is it practical.

So it will hold me up lol my stamina is not the best 😂😅

Just got one, but wondering how to best position it (vis-a-vis legs; length of cord; etc) to minimize drag and bothering my swim overall. Any tips? Thanks!

useful tips for beginners

amazing

How to attach the belt to the float?

float with a sail to get to land would that work ...double barrel float u shaped or how ...and for sport...or flat shaped , sail pole up by neck if lying on it or two poles two sails or hm or one up in front of head , or sail on strings but thats kinda hard and cant go against wind. or floats for sail on string in front of swimmer that hold s it or tied to belt.

I’m on a mission to end the use of tow floats in competitive environments. I have a theory that they’ve only become popular through some sort of shaming campaign, that almost views these things as mandatory. I have never once in my several hundreds of hours of open water swimming benefited from using a tow float. I’ve finally made the decision that these things are more trouble than they’re worth and don’t actually provide any practical benefits for me. Jerk boaters are jerks. They will cross 10 meters in front of you with or without a bouy. I’m suggesting if you need one of these for the flotation, or to rest, you haven’t done enough work yet in the pool and shouldn’t be in the open water. Bouys get holes and fill up with water and it’s like dragging an anvil. It can be very dangerous. They absolutely create drag. What is minimal drag to you? If it’s more than you’re used to it can be dangerous. These should only be used by beginners in a pretty controlled environment or extremely busy boating areas, and should never be allowed in races.

I wanna use it to swim across the lake after a swim. Would it be suitable to put running shoes in it?

0:47 I am using OWS 500 NABAIJI tow float sold by Decathlon shown in this frame for 2 years now. It is truly amazing - holds air for the whole summer, offers great visiblity for speedboats (essential if you don't wear a bright swimming cap), can be used for storing my house keys while swimming, it also has a whistle in case you got stranded in open water and its dark. The storage compartment is not really watertight though, so I would not put a smartphone in it without an additional bag. My weight is about 70kg (150lbs), it can buoy my weight for a long time without any issues.

Warning: do not do this in your apartment

I've just ordered one ! I have tried my friends first and they're great ...I was able to swim between small islands off the coast of Finland while being able to rest without anxiety. My only advice is always check for leaks before setting off and ofc buy a good quality one .

Wow.. it's a new way of teaching, clear instructions, very nice & informative. Thanks a lot for the hard work.

PSA: learn whatever your local sign language’s counting system is, it’s as efficient and usable as a counting system can be

In ISL (Irish, not Indian, Israeli, International, etc.), you count normal 1-5, then turn that palm forward like “5” but with your other hand making a “1” and touching it to form “6” (increasing the number on other hand for 6-9). 10 is the same as in China, and 11 is a thumb sliding across a palm- 12 is a closed position with 2 fingers sticking out- etc., for 12-19. I don’t know if this is the female or male variant, or if it predates sign language altogether

Utter rubbish 😂

Very helpful.

Can someone who can't swim use a tow float?

First

where is that place based on ?

thanks

These questions are amazing. How have you got this far in life? 😂

Saya hanya melihat satu tendangan. Apakah bisa dijelaskan?

Hi, if I kept my phone in the tow float dry bag and needed to make an emergency call, how should I take the phone out and still have something to hold on while making the call?

Very good demonstration.

Great video thanks 👍

Great commentary and lovely to have that personal addition of talking about the athletes from both teams and what they do additionally. Great event hosted by swim Ireland , thank you very much 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

My name is Edel Quinn , I was born July 23rd 1970 in Ballina county Mayo I think we are cousins if you ever come to New Jersey America you can stop by my bookstore! Your swimming talent is Amazing!!!

Mmm would this work on my marine battery in case i tip my canoe

I appreciate the step by step demonstration. Sometimes it's hard to figure out the form and the angles in real time.

I have this and problem is when wind lifts it in the air and hit you in your shoulders and head making swimming impossible?

Don't think these 2 moron can even swim

영상 저에게는 최고입니다 고맙습니다
