About This Item

 

Full Description

The entire process of learning to swim is considered to include two stages:
- getting familiar with the water environment and movements in it, and
- acquiring skills in standard swimming strokes.

Buoyant aids for swimming instruction (in brief: swimming device(s)) are intended to assist users (in particular children) to learn to swim. The design and purpose of the swimming devices are related to the above stages.

Swimming devices are intended to give the user positive buoyancy in the water while maintaining the correct body position for swimming. However, it should not be assumed that standard conformity of the swimming devices will by itself eliminate the risk of drowning as this depends also on the behaviour of the user and any supervision.
