The present invention is a swim aid consisting of a paddle blade having a hand side and an opposite water side, a proximal end, a distal end opposite the proximal end and having a distal edge and opposite first and second lateral ends. Finger apertures are formed along the distal end of the blade and separated from the distal edge by a finger tip portion, the apertures being separated from each other by inter-digital portions. The paddle includes a wrist portion formed on the proximal end of the blade, the wrist portion having a wrist strap, and a palm portion formed on the blade between the apertures and the wrist portion, the palm portion forming a concave surface on the water side of the blade. A thumb notch is formed on the first lateral end of the blade. The paddle further includes a fist and second flange portion formed on the first and second lateral ends, respectively, the flange portions being swept back from the water side of the blade towards the hand side of the blade, the first flange portion extending from the notch to the wrist portion, the second flange portion extending along the second lateral end from the wrist portion to the apertures. The inter-digital portions are swept back from the water side of the blade towards the hand side of the blade and the finger tip portion is swept forward towards the water side of the blade relative to the inter-digital portions sufficiently to permit the users' fingers to extend fully through the apertures when the paddle is worn.

Il s'agit d'un objet destiné à faciliter la nage que l'on fixe sur la main. L'objet en question est une pagaie avec armature possédant plusieurs caractéristiques destinées à faciliter la nage. La pagaie est percée de trous dans lesquels on insère le bout des doigts, qui se trouvent alors de l'autre côté de la pagaie, libres de toute obstruction, mais protégés par un rebord. € l'extrémité opposée, la pagaie est pourvue d'un serre-poignet. On trouve sur le côté de la pagaie une encoche pour le pouce, à proximité de la portion de la pagaie destinée à la paume de la main. La portion paume de la pagaie est traversée d'une tige qui, avec deux tiges latérales, délimite la portion paume de la pagaie. Enfin, grâce aux deux renforts situés dans la section où se trouvent les extrémités des doigts, la pagaie n'est plus une surface plane, mais un objet tridimensionnel permettant de prendre appui sur l'eau et, grâce à une certaine rigidité, offrant un bon confort à l'utilisateur. La combinaison de toutes les caractéristiques ci-dessus permet d'obtenir un objet pratique, simple d'utilisation et permettant de nager en tout confort.
