Equipment for practices include: Practice suit and drag suit: These increase the drag (resistance) in the water so when you take them off to race you go alot faster Goggles: For the sole purpose of being able to see while your swimming Cap: Its really optional.. but for girls (and guys with long hair) it helps alot with keeping your hair out of the way. And there are really cute caps out there too! Fins: Used for kicking or swimming. Pull Buoy: A piece of foam that you put between your legs so you can pull and focus on your arms. This prevents kicking and also keeps legs afloat. A strap or tube can also be substituted for this Paddles: Increase pull against the water.. can either be traditional or fulcrom style paddles. These are usually used for pulling Snorkle: Sometimes used in pulling. This allows you to breathe while you swim without turning your head. Kick Board: A board that you use for kicking Equipment for Competition: Racing suit: Usually very tight and sometimes longer down the legs and arms. This provides the least amount of drag. Goggles Cap: Cuts out drag that hair has Warmups: Keep you muscles warm before and after races! and of course towels!
