A swim training apparatus that has a body section defined along a longitudinal axis and a coupling section configured to couple the swim training apparatus to a buoy line in a first orientation and a second orientation. In the first orientation the longitudinal axis of the body section is substantially parallel with the buoy line and in the second orientation the longitudinal axis of the body section has an offset angle relative to the buoy line.

A diving pool includes a first tiered section extending to a first depth of the diving pool, a second tiered section extending to a second depth of the diving pool that is deeper than the first depth, and a cover. The cover can be releasably positioned within the diving pool at a depth of the diving pool to isolate a shallower portion of the diving pool above the cover at the depth from a deeper portion of the diving pool below the cover at the depth.

A support part of a swimming start block. The front support part (18) is provided for a starting block (1) of a swimming race, which includes at least one base (9) to be fixed around a swimming pool, and a platform (5) which is mounted or fixed on the base (9). A foot of a swimmer as well as his hands are supported before the start of a race on the front support part. This front support part is arranged to be mounted interchangeably on a front portion of the platform (5) of the starting block (18) and can be an intelligent front support part with motion sensors and light source and race management electronics.

A starting block (1) including a supporting ledge device (10) for a start of a backstroke race. The supporting ledge device is at least partially integrated into the starting block. The supporting ledge device includes a support ledge (13) on which at least one foot of a swimmer can be supported before the start of a backstroke race. The support ledge is held from within a base (9) or a base plate of the starting block by fastening elements (11). Two flexible fastening elements in the form of straps are respectively connected to the two ends of the support ledge and to return means within the starting block at ends opposite the fixation to the support ledge.

A water skills training device to facilitate water skills training for infants under the supervision of caretakers in shallow water environments is disclosed. The device includes a base to be placed in a shallow water environment, a receptacle placed onto the base and configured to receive and support an infant, and a floatation cushion removably engaged to the base and configured to support an infant's head or upper torso during water skills training. The floatation cushion can be easily removed or added as desired.

A diving pool includes a first tiered section extending to a first depth of the diving pool, a second tiered section extending to a second depth of the diving pool that is deeper than the first depth. The diving pool may be configured to facilitate pressure-based therapeutic treatments at the various depths. The diving pool may include a cover. The cover can be releasably positioned within the diving pool at a depth of the diving pool to isolate a shallower portion of the diving pool above the cover at the depth from a deeper portion of the diving pool below the cover at the depth.
