Abstract
A system and method for two swimmer wings designed using biomimicry and inspired by winged creatures/birds of flight as well as the fore flippers of a sea turtle. The swimmer wings are designed for users to traverse long distances instead of relying on personal watercrafts or boats to not only help sustain the environment by reducing the carbon footprint but also provide physical exercise to improve the user's well-being. The swimmer wings include a board, an arm guard which shields the user's forearm, and arm fasteners that secure the user's forearm between the board and the arm guard.
Claims20
A swimmer wing to traverse through a body of water, comprising:
- the swimmer wing having a board, the board connected to one or more arm fasteners, the one or more arm fasteners connected to an arm guard, the one or more arm fasteners configured to secure a user's forearm between the board and the arm guard, the arm guard configured to shield a top of the user's forearm.
A method for utilizing a swimmer wing for a user to traverse through a body of water, the method comprising the steps of:
- placing a forearm parallel to a board, the board curved and elongated in shape acting as a hydrodynamic wing to generate thrust to the user;
- positioning one or more arm fasteners over the forearm of the user, the fasteners having one or more hook and loop fastener assemblies, the hook and loop fastener assemblies each having a flap and a band, the flap an elongated strip having a patch of gripping fabric comprised of a series of loops and a series of hooks;
- and
- securing the forearm to the one or more arm fasteners wherein the forearm is held securely to the board.
A first and second swimmer wing to traverse through a body of water, comprising:
- the first and second swimmer wing each having a board, the board connected to one or more arm fasteners, the one or more arm fasteners configured to secure a user's forearms between the board.
