Visible Swim Buoy for Open Water Swimmers and Triathletes

Feature Summary

High Visibility in Open Water

The brightly-colored New Wave Swim Buoy is exceptionally noticeable to boaters, jet skis, and paddlers. Some even say it can be seen from space. Stay visible to avoid getting hit by a jet ski or a speed boat. Swimmers in black wetsuits are virtually invisible in the open water—New Wave Swim Buoy ensures you're prominently visible in the murky waters of the Loch Ness Lake—even the Loch Ness Monster won't mistake you for a tasty harbor seal.

Safe Place to Float and Rest

The natural buoyancy of the New Wave Swim Buoy makes it an excellent flotation device. If you cramp up or simply need a rest, you can easily grab the float. This ensures you stay safe and comfortable during your swim.

Lightweight and Portable

The New Wave Swim Buoy is ultra-lightweight at just 10 oz, making it easy to bring along on a paddle board or kayak trip. While it doesn't replace a personal flotation device (PFD) or swim life vest, commonly used by kayakers and stand-up paddle boarders (SUPs), its light weight adds convenience for refreshing open water swims. Enhance your visibility further by adding a bike blinker inside the float; your aqua-visibility could quadruple or maybe even quintuple!

Storage for Personal Items

The New Wave Swim Buoy is perfect for point-to-point swims. Fastened to your waist by a belt with a tether line, the buoy has a separate storage compartment from the Inflatable Air Chamber. Our athletes use it for storing sunglasses, sunscreen, body glide, extra caps and goggles, running shoes, socks and clothes, diving masks, snorkels, cameras, water shoes, iPods, and more. What would you bring on your water journey?

Improved Monitoring of Athletes

Stay safe and accounted for with the New Wave Swim Buoy. Spectators, officials, and lifeguards can easily spot swimmers from a distance. If you put your cell phone in a Ziploc bag, it can share your GPS location via apps like MapMyRun, RunKeeper, or Garmin Connect. Track your progress and broadcast your location in the water for added security and peace of mind.
