 EVA foam lacks buoyancy, increases drag. May 28, 2008
By Talby
Though this model is full-sized, the EVA foam it is made from lacks the buoyancy of (and is less rigid than) cellular plastic models. The board will typically rest almost fully submerged and will not be comfortable for swimmers that like to keep their heads up while kicking. The drag created also makes it difficult to maintain a reasonable pace, and I've found it difficult to keep up with my lane mates (and who wants to be the jerk bringing down the lane pace!)
Experienced swimmers and children will find the board adequate, others may want to pick a lighter, sturdier board.
 Not enough flotation Nov 08, 2011
By swiminpenumbra
I got this TYR kickboard long time ago, and also quit using it long time ago.
The reason is it has a big enough surface area, but very thin compared to other brands.
I just don't like it at all.
Not as effective as others Jul 16, 2011
By Running
Although this board is for adults, it does not support as much weight as other brands. It's not nearly as effective it terms of helping you practice gliding or kicking. It's probably more useful for young teens. Maybe I'll use it for holding my 6-pack of beer in the pool since it seems sturdy for that.
