Finis Axis Buoy — Dual-Function Pull Buoy & Ankle Float for Swim Training

The Finis Axis Buoy is a versatile swim training tool designed to improve body position, build upper body strength, and engage core muscles. Its unique dual-function design allows it to be used as both a traditional pull buoy between the legs and an ankle float — giving coaches and swimmers more training options in a single piece of equipment.

Key Features

  • Dual-Function Design: Functions as both a pull buoy and ankle float — easily transfer between ankles and legs using the ergonomic keyholes
  • Improves Body Position: Lifts hips and legs to promote proper horizontal alignment and streamlined technique
  • Improves Hip Rotation: Encourages focus on hip drive while pulling to develop core strength
  • Streamlined Contoured Shape: Fits comfortably and securely between the legs
  • Lightweight EVA Foam: Soft, non-chafing material with a lightly textured surface for a secure grip
  • Builds Upper Body Strength: Immobilises the legs to shift training focus to the arms and shoulders
  • Available in Two Sizes:
    • Small: L 25 cm × W 6.8 cm × D 13.5 cm
    • Medium: L 29.5 cm × W 8 cm × D 15.8 cm

Who Is It For?

The Axis Buoy suits swimmers of all levels — from juniors developing technique to competitive swimmers and triathletes building upper body power. It is equally useful for squad training and solo sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between a pull buoy and an ankle float?
A: A pull buoy is held between the thighs to elevate the hips and isolate the upper body. An ankle float is placed around the ankles to restrict leg kick. The Finis Axis Buoy can function as both.

Q: Which size should I choose?
A: The Small (25 cm) suits younger or smaller swimmers, while the Medium (29.5 cm) is suited to adult swimmers. If in doubt, the Medium is the most common choice for adults.

Q: Is the Axis Buoy suitable for open water training?
A: It is designed for pool training use to develop stroke technique and upper body strength.
