The European Standard specifies safety requirements for construction, performance, sizing and marking for buoyant swimming aids intended to assist users with movements through the water in the early stages of water awareness' whilst learning to swim or whilst learning part of a swimming stroke. It also gives methods of test for verification of these requirements. This part of the standard, Part 2, applies to Type C devices that are designed to assist with improving specific elements of the stroke and which have either inherent buoyancy or can be inflated.
