Questions & Answers
No way, and given how firm it is, it would be quite uncomfortable.
Zero. It was purchased as a kickboard, but it was extremely unstable and kept dunking me in the water. Maybe I misused it, but if I were you, I'd go with something else. But now I'm the proud owner of a bright pink pool accessory. Nothing else can be done with it.
The best way to describe the two is "hard" and "firm." It is, however, extremely stable and difficult to destroy. In a positive way, firm. My mother takes hers to the gym three times a week to swim in the pool, and she enjoys it.

It has a nice appearance, but it is smaller and flimsier than I had anticipated. The measurements are correct (28" x 9"), but I assume the children in the photos are very small because the board appears to be much smaller in person. br>br>Also, the photo of the kid kicking and lying on the board is a little suspicious, because the board would be bent into a crescent shape in real life. It doesn't feel like it'll break or anything, but the photos make it appear stiff (as if it were a real surfboard) when it's actually quite bendy. br>br>The material they're referring to as "durable compressed foam" is commonly known as styrofoam. br>br>It's not bad, but I was hoping for more for $18. At the same time, I purchased a regular shaped TYR kickboard for half the price, which is much nicer - Instead of styrofoam, the surface is stiffer, thicker, and smoother. I was expecting a fun surfboard shape with that material and construction, but that's not the case. br>br>It's entertaining for a very young child (3-years-old). 4) However, it isn't very useful as a kickboard, and I doubt it will last long.
This board is ideal for both because it is the perfect size for students to grasp, neither too large nor too small. Even better for older children to play with while still providing some support and safety if they require it. br>It appeared that my children were attempting to break it but were unable to do so. br>We're very pleased with them, and we're confident you will be as well! I would strongly advise! br>If you enjoyed the review, please click HELPFUL and tell Amazon! Thank you very much for your input.
I bought two of these for my kids' seasonal 12' pool in the backyard. br>It's a nice flotation device that has some flexibility and isn't as rigid as the "hard" foam kick boards I recall from my childhood. These, on the other hand, have a little give and are slightly squishy. ness to the hand while remaining stiff, rather than a giant wet sponge br>Overall, a nice flotation device--great size even for small pools--that I would recommend. (The only issue I had was a week delay in shipment for some reason— it was supposed to ship on Friday for Sunday delivery, but it arrived five days later. ).
I ordered one of these expecting it to be similar to the ones we used to have in elementary school back in the early 1990s. This foam isn't very sturdy, and it doesn't provide much support. It was a complete waste of money on my part. If a small child comes to swim at our house, I'll keep it for them.
This isn't a flimsy structure. The only issue is the way they are packaged- Something as simple as a hard piece of cardboard could have helped. The green one has a small dent in the side, as well as some warping. Not bad, actually. I'm going to try laying something flat and heavy on it and leaving it out in the sun to see if that helps with the black one, which has a noticeable warp. You might get a warped board--hopefully not as bad as mine--but it's not the worst I've seen for swimming laps.
For our 4-year-old son, the size is just right. Probably not suitable for children over the age of five. Because it's so small, I've given it a score of six. This has helped to instill confidence in our son as he learns to swim, and he simply enjoys it. There are no issues. After a summer of swimming, it has maintained its bright red color and is in good shape.
This has come in handy with my six-year-old, and it's also a lot of fun to swim around with. It did have a strong odor when it arrived, so remove the wrap and set it outside to air.
At least three times per week, I work out in a pool. Because I live in Los Angeles, I am able to do this at any time. After 30 minutes of swimming and aerobics, I use this sturdy sidekick for the remaining 15 minutes to help propel me while I focus on leg strength. Swimmers are now required to bring their own equipment during post-pandemic periods, which I prefer to do anyway. I definitely made the right decision when I bought this kickboard.
