Pull buoy Zoggs (2015)

This pullbuoy from Zoggs does away with the traditional 'figure of 8' shape and is thicker where your thighs grip, which makes it easier to hold on to. It's also very buoyant, replicating the feeling of buoyancy you get in the lower part of a tri wetsuit. The shape is of further use to swimmers who need to improve arm technique – some swimmers' hands tend to cross over the centre-line when using a pullbuoy, but the extra leg raise means you can concentrate fully on your arm technique rather than keeping yourself afloat. You can of course combine the pullbuoy with hand paddles for a real strength building workout in the pool.
