Arena kickboards are essential training tools designed to isolate and strengthen your kicking technique by supporting your upper body while you focus on leg movement. These boards are particularly valuable for competitive swimmers, squad training, and anyone looking to improve their kick strength and technique across all four swimming strokes.
Arena's kickboard design incorporates multiple hand positioning options, allowing swimmers to grip the board in different ways depending on their training goals. The finger holes enable a secure grip for intensive kick sets, while the side grips offer an alternative position for varying muscle engagement. This versatility makes them suitable for both beginners learning proper kick mechanics and experienced swimmers working on specific technique refinements.
Constructed from 100% EVA foam, these kickboards are PVC-free and built to withstand regular chlorine exposure in Australian pools. The lightweight 255-gram design won't create unnecessary drag, while the 40cm x 28cm x 3cm dimensions provide optimal buoyancy support without being cumbersome during training sessions.
Using a kickboard effectively isolates your leg muscles, helping build core strength alongside improved kicking power. By keeping your upper body stationary, you can concentrate entirely on proper kick timing, ankle flexibility, and leg positioning. This focused training approach is particularly beneficial for developing the strong kick foundation essential in competitive swimming and triathlon preparation.
Arena's reputation for producing high-quality swim training equipment makes their kickboards a trusted choice among Australian swim coaches and serious swimmers. Browse the Arena kickboard range below to enhance your kick training with equipment designed by swimming specialists.
