Used Water Wonder Style High Quality Hard Foam swimming Kickboard Floating FirmThis is an old school hard foam kickboard that has seen many miles of use in competitive swim team.
It has taken years of abuse over hundreds of miles of use. Short course, long course, even some short course meters. Some of the older kickboards even reminisce about the days of long course yards practices at the old state run pools.
These kickboards have been out of the water for the better part of a decade, so they may take a little while to get reacclimated to the water. Once back in the water, these kickboards should be good for many more decades of use and abuse. Back in the 1970s and 1980s people were a little , lets say, less stringent with their adherence to common sense safety rules. I many times witnessed one of these types of kickboards being thrown full force, the length of the pool with never any real damage (to the kickboards, windows, however were not so fortunate). Any damage that may have been sustained by the kickboard was rarely noticed nor would it affect the performance of the kickboard.
This kickboard is a rarely seen, but often coveted black kickboard. Black has not been traditionally a common color for kickboards in the competitive swimming world (blue and red being the most common with yellow also sometimes seen). These boards are actually more of a dark charcoal grey. you can tell the color is not a strict black because you can read a black sharpie marker which shows up much darker than the kickboard. Swimmers were often seen arguing over who would get to use the black kickboard during a given kick set. Ah, yes old school memories of the dark ages of competitive swimming.
