Overview
TYR makes this junior kickboard from closed cell EVA foam that does not absorb water and resists chlorine. It is built smaller for youth and smaller swimmers, who hold it out front while the legs do the work.
Smaller size makes it easier for children to grip and kick with, and the foam is shaped to be shoulder friendly. The seller copy and the spec table disagree on the board dimensions, so allow for a small difference.
Who it's for
Young swimmers building leg strength and technique in the pool. Older swimmers with a larger frame will find an adult board a better match.
Pros and cons
- Youth sized for small hands
- Closed cell foam resists water
- Shoulder friendly design
- Two different dimension sets listed
- One color only
- Not for adult swimmers
Performance notes
Closed cell foam holds its buoyancy because it does not soak up water, and holding the board out front immobilizes the arms so the legs carry the effort. The surface area helps keep the hips higher in the water.

Frequently asked questions
How do I care for the TYR Junior Kickboard?
The listing gives no care steps, but it says the closed cell EVA foam is chlorine resistant and does not absorb water.
What size is the TYR Junior Kickboard really?
The listing text says 14.5 x 10 inches while the spec table gives 16 x 11 inches, so expect it to be close to the smaller figure.
Is the TYR Junior Kickboard a life jacket?
No. It is a training aid, and the listing describes it as a buoyancy aid, not a safety flotation device.
