These paddles don’t let you get away with anything (review on Drag2Zero paddles by Otion)
The Drag2Zero Otion® paddles are a brilliant training tool if you're serious about improving your swim technique. Because of their strap-free design, they force you to enter the water with good hand position and finish the stroke all the way through. If your form breaks down or you start getting fatigued and cut your stroke short - you’ll know immediately, because the paddle slips off. No hiding!
They give great feedback, helping you find and hold onto the water more effectively through the pull phase. I also appreciate that they’re shaped to reduce shoulder strain - especially helpful when you’re logging a lot of meters. And if you do drop one, no panic - they float.
If you’re looking to clean up your stroke and build strength with purpose, these are a great investment.
