We have a small above-ground pool (about 10x20 feet) so 34;swimming34; was sort of a joke... until I tried this gadget. I'd seen these things before and just couldn't wrap my head around liking it because I LOVE swimming and this idea seemed silly. Boy, was I wrong! It took a few minutes to get the hang of it, but now I'm in love with it. I get so much more out of my little pool with this. I even bought a second one so a friend can 34;swim34; with me. Instead of 34;racing34; with each other, we see who can 34;swim34; the longest before taking a break. I especially love the bunji cord aspect as it gives a little without feeling like you're literally tied to a rope. Awesome little piece of equipment, super comfy around your waste too. My pool is saltwater so it might help deteriorate some part of it sooner than later, but I don't care. If I have to replace it often, I will for the pure functionality of it.
