Shopper can these fins be used by an 8-year old to improve all the swimming strokes?
PAUL R I would say probably not, they are still an adult fin. If he is a really big kid then maybe.
WALT R Yes, but...
eight year old swimmers may wish to use the fins all the time once they get
used to them, and they will not help with the "whip kick" for the breast stroke. They are very good for muscle strengthening and learning proper technique. Good luck. Let's build a champion.
ROSEANN W Hmm... I don't know about "strokes". In my opinion I believe the fins help with leg strength, but not necessarily the over-all stroke form. I'm also thinking they might be to much fin for an 8 y.o. I will add that as an adult 20+ year lap swimmer, I've tried other fins only to come back to these. Hope this helps with your decision.
DAO P Yes it can, I used for 2 years and just wean it off last month.

SUNNY L Absolutely. These fins are a fantastic workout tool and helped me improve my swimming dramatically this Summer.
