Abstract
A swim training flotation device system includes two oblong inflatable bags connected to a belt worn about a swimmer's waist. The swim training flotation device allows swimmers to move from a vertical position to a horizontal position and from a prone position to a supine position without adjustment of the device. In addition, the device does not inhibit a swimmer's arm stroke and the device promotes a neutral swimming position.
