The hip rotation is great for working with new swimmers of all ages. I have used to product with masters swimmers and age group swimmers, and I find it extremely useful when teaching the swimmer to rotate their body and keep their cores tight.

This product is essential to learning proper hip rotation technique, to get the feel in the water. With the proper rotation, you are set up for a high elbow recovery and angle to drive the hand forward for stroke entry.

At PAQ we emphasize proper body position for all strokes. The FINIS Hydro Hip is a crucial tool for developing core strength and bringing awareness to hip rotation! It is amazing how quickly the swimmer can feel a difference, and the tool makes it easy for the ondeck coach to spot imbalances in hip movement as well.

Was not expecting this thing to burn like it does — in the best way possible. The Hydro Hip definitely makes you work, especially through the core and hips. I could feel it challenging my rotation right away, and after a few sessions, I noticed better balance and power in my stroke. It’s simple, but super effective. Highly recommend if you're looking to level up your technique and get an extra edge in your training.
