Abstract

A swimming maneuverability device which assists a person in swimming, exercising, floating, maneuvering, or the like thereof in shallow and/or deep water. The swimming manuerverability device includes a base having at least one aerodynamic surface, a first restraining device for attaching the base to a user's arm, and a second restraining device for attaching the base to a user's hand. Optional buoyant material of the swimming device allows a person to swim, exercise, float, maneuver, or the like thereof in shallow water while keeping the user's head and/or upper torso out of the water. Alternatively, the base may be comprised of a ballast material to assist a user in staying below the surface of the water while maneuvering. In yet another embodiment of the invention, the base may be comprised of a neutrally buoyant material.
