The open water is yours. The Rascal Racing Swim Buoy keeps you visible out there — high-vis colours, adjustable waist strap, zero drag on your stroke. Inflate by mouth, clip it on, swim. Nothing more to it.
Why you need it
- Mandatory safety gear at most organised open water swimming and triathlon events in Malaysia and internationally
- High-visibility Neon Green and Hot Pink colourways make you easy to spot by lifeguards, boat marshals, and watercraft
- Trails behind you on the waist strap without affecting your stroke, body position, or speed
- Doubles as a rest aid if you need to pause mid-swim
How to use
- Loosen the valve cap
- Inflate by blowing air into the valve until firm
- Close the valve cap securely
- Attach the waist belt around your waist and adjust for a comfortable fit
- Enter the water and swim, the buoy trails behind you
- Always respect the environment and keep the water clean
Important safety notice
- This is not a lifesaving device. For use by competent swimmers only
- Before entering open water, briefly submerge the inflated buoy to check for air leaks
- If you feel faint, dizzy, experience cramps, weakness, or have difficulty breathing, stop swimming immediately and use the buoy for support
- Do not attempt to rescue another swimmer in distress without having been trained in lifesaving techniques by a certified agency
- This buoy is not a flotation device for prolonged resting or rescue and should not be relied upon as a substitute for a life jacket
