The Dolphin Float System is ideal for physically involved individuals who have head/trunk control, but may need to compensate for uneven weight.
Through the use of side pads, tendencies toward lateral rotation are minimized along with adding extra flotation.
Various positions can be achieved when using the side pads. A front chest pad gives even more lift and is also removable if needed. Finally, the lower Dolphin strap between the legs keeps it in place while swimming.
The Dolphin Float System is constructed of Ensolite® Marine Flotation Foam so that it does not sink or absorb water. Each piece of the Dolphin Float System is triple coated with a durable vinyl finish, in bright yellow, making them highly visible in the water. Rainbow polypropylene webbing and super tough nylon buckles (on certain products) resist chlorine and salt water corrosion. Various positions can be achieved when using the side pads. Front chest pad gives even more lift and is also removable if needed.
Available in: Sunshine Yellow with Rainbow Strapping
Easy to clean by hand using mild detergent. Avoid any harsh chemical cleaners.
In order to help decide on the type of equipment and the appropriate size for the individual, here are a few basic considerations:
- Amount of spasticity/rigidity exhibited.
- Amount of trunk and head control that the individual exhibits.
- Age, weight and amount of body fat that contributes to natural buoyancy.
- Individuals medical condition, considering the type and severity of the disability.
- Teaching goals which are desired i.e. maximum or minimum flotation for full range of motion in the extremities.
- Versatility of equipment: our swim aids by Danmar are designed for all age groups and may be adapted to changing levels of proficiency.
