FINIS, a world leader in technical swimming products that ‘maximize fitness potential and technique’, has announced the immediate availability of its Positive Drive Fins (PDF’s), swim fins designed for correct propulsion with all swim strokes. These uniquely designed fins promote a natural inward supination kick style, allowing the feet to flex naturally and help to increase leg strength, foot speed and ankle flexibility.
FINIS Positive Drive Fins are available in a variety of sizes from Y8 – Men’s 13 for US$21.99 – US$27.99 at www.FINISInc.com.
“As a fitness or competitive swimmer you want to optimize your time in the water by maximizing your workout and performing swim movements with the proper technique,” said John Mix, President of FINIS. “Our new Positive Drive Fins provide a swimmer with a tool that will improve their overall swim technique and increase propulsion across all swim strokes.”
Positive Drive Fins offer versatile training. They can be used to correct propulsion during kick cycles and for safely building power in the breaststroke kick. With an asymmetrical design, ellipsoidal blade that generates correct propulsion and adjustable heel strap, swimmers will have a more natural kick cycle while wearing a fin that allows the feet to flex naturally. According to FINIS, the new fins are also great for all four competitive swim strokes and for training in the individual Medley event.
Founded in 1993 in Northern California, FINIS was started by John Mix and Olympic Gold Medal Swimmer Pablo Morales. The Monofin and the Swimmer’s Snorkel were the first products they developed for the US market. Afterwards, they continued to focus on creating training tools for swimmers and coaches worldwide. FINIS products are currently available in over 65 countries and are used by US and International Olympic teams, elite triathletes and fitness swimmers.
