Abstract
A swimming device for a swimmer or diver is described, which has a monofin, a power transfer element for moving the monofin using muscle power, and a fastening device for fastening the power transfer element to the lower legs of the swimmer. The power transfer element has a lower leg section, a foot section, and a fin section. In order to achieve the highest possible propulsion in the water with the lowest possible use of force, the power transfer element flows dynamically, in cross section in the X-Z level with a longer Z axis and short X-axis.
