Pull buoys are one of the most effective training tools available to competitive swimmers, and understanding how to use them well can make a significant difference to your upper body development and stroke efficiency. By placing a pull buoy between the thighs, the lower body is elevated and supported, allowing the swimmer to focus entirely on arm pull mechanics, catch technique, and shoulder rotation without the demands of kick. At Swimwear Shack, our pull buoys Australia swimming range covers the top options from AMANZI, Funky Trunks, Speedo, and Arena.
AMANZI pull buoys are a standout in our range for their distinctive designs and excellent buoyancy profiles. Made from durable closed-cell foam that maintains its shape and buoyancy over many seasons of use, AMANZI pull buoys are a popular choice among Brisbane club swimmers who want a quality training tool that adds a bit of personality to the lane. Funky Trunks pull buoys bring the brand's bold print aesthetic to the pool deck, while Speedo and Arena offer reliable, technically sound options for swimmers who prioritise function over flair.
Choosing the right size pull buoy matters more than many swimmers realise. A pull buoy that's too large over-elevates the hips, creating an unrealistic body position that doesn't translate well to full-stroke swimming. A well-sized pull buoy should elevate the hips to approximately the same height as when swimming with a strong kick, providing a natural feel that reinforces good technique. Adults generally benefit from a standard adult pull buoy, while younger or lighter swimmers may find a junior size provides a better fit.
