good training tool
This is a review after the first use.
Beep has just the ideal loudness. I place it under my swimcap, in front/over my right ear on the scull, over the goggle strap level. It can be heard clearly over and under the water, although I have hearing problems with my right ear. It seems that it is quiet enough not to disturb fellow swimmers.
I used mode 1 and 2 so far. Mode 1 for pacing my strokes, mode 2 for measuring 100m swim. It is easy to follow the beeps, and actually it helps to maintain a much higher speed because I have to concentrate only on form, and I should not worry about the stroke rate.
I plan to use mode 3 for maintaining recovery lengths.
Operating the buttons are straightforward, easy to use it without pulling it out of the cap. The button combinations feel a bit weird at first, but it is easy to get used to it. To increase/decrease the tempo, you have to keep the actual numbers in your head (not a difficult task though :))
The design is a bit slippery, it is easy to drop it, I hope I will not break it in the long run.
If you want to improve your tempo, while maintaining good form and efficiency, this is a highly recommended tool. However do not use it if you need to develop your form, or only with moderation, by slowing down your strokes.
