As I’ve mentioned before, we don’t make typical New Years Resolutions.  Instead, I’m always striving to find ways to be a little more efficient, find recipes that are a bit healthier, and, this year, my big “Unofficial New Year Resolution” was to find more ways to spend quality time as a family.  Being from the land of 10,000 lakes, we have plenty of opportunity to get to the local beach and enjoy some water exercise and fun during the summer months but one of my ideas for the new year is to take advantage of the punch cards available to use the pool at our local hotel.  I think this will be an awesome way to get the entire family active and out during our long winter months.  To make this new endeavor more exciting, I turned to FINIS and was thrilled to be able to partner with them for this review.

FINIS is the worldwide leader in Technical Swimming Development and have a wonderful array technical gear, goggles, caps, swimwear, and accessories as well as a lineup of products geared just for kids!

One of the first products to catch my eye happened to be their Floating Island. Our 11, 9, and 6 year old have all taken swim lessons and their teachers have utilized a product like this so I wanted to get one for ourselves so we can continue to work on skills as well as utilize with our younger two kids.  The Floating Island offers a large, safe learning environment for kids that is both flexible and sturdy.  Created from EVA foam, it floats in the water while the holes allow water to seep through easily without hindering performance.  Whether using it to swim, practice kicks, float on, or just play with, it’s tons of fun!

Also in their children’s line are Reusable Swim Diapers as well as Child Finz.  With our first couple children, I took the typical throw-away route as I had no idea that reusable swim diapers were even an option.  Once I discovered them, I’ll never go back!  They offer the same protection but so much more in the comfort department.  Since most schools and pools require them, the FINIS Reusable Swim Diaper is a great choice.  They are even available in a variety of patterns and sizes.  Just wash and reuse over and over.  Plus, the gentle woven polyester lining is soft again little ones skin and these Swim Diapers even offer UPF 50+ protection.

The Child Finz are just smaller in size and help younger swimmers gain confidence and learn the proper horizontal body position in the water.  Offering a comfortable and flexible design, the adjustable velcro heel strap makes them easy to get on and off.

Next up, I wanted to share a few other products and accessories from FINIS including: Long Floating Fins, Foam Kickboard, and Surge Polarized Goggles.  I love using the Foam Kickboard to practice and improve kicks for both myself as well as the kids and the design is made to help decrease stress on the shoulders during use.  We’ve purchased several cheap versions at local stores and every single one has snapped within a couple of uses.  The FINIS Foam Kickboard is very high quality, flexible, and will definitely stand up over time.

The Long Floating Fins are appropriate for both fitness use as well as for competitive swimmers and comes in a variety of color coded sizes.  I love the extra kicking power they provide while the soft and secure fit is also comfortable.  Another great feature is that they are made from a floatable rubber which makes them perfect for utilizing in our Minnesota lakes during the summer!

Nobody in our family likes getting water in their eyes when swimming so the Surge Polarized Goggles are a great asset.  These highest clarity fitness goggles are designed with wide curved lenses and feature patented side-button clips for easy strap adjustments.  They are anti-fog, provide both UVA and UVB protection, and also offer glare protection.

So as you can see, FINIS offers some really great products and I’ve just only began touching on all that they offer.  All in all, everything we’ve experienced has been created with quality, comfort, and performance in mind.  I know that our new FINIS products will be a great asset to helping get our family out and active together all year long.  We are huge FINIS fans and I think you will be too!
