Testimonials
"I used the EVF techpaddle with David for most of the high school season. David swam freestyle with almost a straight arm. After 3-4 weeks using the (forearm trainer) techpaddles, there was a noticeable difference in his strokes. After 8 weeks his times dropped substantially. 100 Fly dropped from a 1:10 to a: 55, 200 Free from a 1:59 to a 1:54, Breaststroke from a 1:10 to a 1:04, 200 IM from a 2:10 to a 2:02.”

They are INCREDIBLY cool. We played with them with some chronic elbow-droppers or straight-armers. They all found the EVF position very quickly. It's the single most important skill (Early Vertical Forearm Position) that differentiates every level. For the first time they were able to accelerate from the EVF position. They took them off and still "kept the feel."

One of my new swimmers had been on a plateau, the result of difficulty overcoming a dropped elbow and catch-up freestyle. After one season of mornings, using the (EVF trainer) techpaddles, he improved in the 200 by 3 seconds, 500 by 7 seconds, the 1000 by 17 seconds, and the 1650 by 26 seconds. While he did many things to improve his events, the (catch training) techpaddles forced him to generate more power by pushing with a high elbow for the front to the back of his stroke.

I found the (EVF trainer) techpaddle to be useful in teaching the feel of the Catch / Catch Phase of the freestyle stroke. It is an invaluable tool.

Tried them (techpaddles) with a good 14 year old female distance swimmer and a good 9 year old. The paddles perform exactly as you say they do in your materials.
