About Easy-Close HYDRO-FIT Cuffs (Velcro Closure)
The most versatile product we make
HYDRO-FIT Cuffs enhance the natural buoyancy and resistance of water, giving you more training benefits and making the most out of the time you spend in the water. They’re the hardest working gear we make. Versatile and durable—use them on your ankles, around your waist, on your arms or around your wrists. Cuffs do it all, in both deep and shallow water.
Our Easy-Close Cuffs feature a heavy duty Velcro-like fastening system. Easier to put on and adjust than our Classic Cuffs, they provide a wider range of fitting options while offering the same level of function and performance as Classic Cuffs. When worn as a belt, Cuffs will fit up to a 54" waist. Available in Blue/Black color combination. Sold in pairs. Proudly Made In the USA.
Why choose HYDRO-FIT Cuffs?
Water exercise is all about moving more water and creating more resistance—an irresistible combination for a great workout. Get more from your workouts with the most versatile water exercise products we make! HYDRO-FIT Cuffs and Mini Cuffs adapt to a wide range of water workouts—from shallow to deep water, from very intense to more moderate and relaxed—and function as four different pieces of water exercise equipment, all in one!
Exercise your options
Ankle Cuffs: Underwater, Cuffs works like ankle weights on land, toning and strengthening all the major muscles in your lower body. Watch our fitting video for securing your Cuffs on your ankles.
Buoyancy Belt: Fasten your Cuffs together to create a comfortable and secure buoyancy belt for deep water exercise and water running. The Cuffs segmented design distributes buoyancy evenly around your torso and fits waists up to 54".
Wrist Cuffs: On your wrists, Cuffs provide the resistance and buoyancy of buoyant barbells to tone and strengthen all the major muscles in your upper body. Our Cuffs hold onto you, you don’t have to hold onto them—less grip, more stability, and secure comfort.
Arm Cuffs: Around your upper arms, Cuffs give you buoyant support in deep or shallow water. Ideal for abdominal toning exercises and deep water activities where a buoyancy belt is not suitable.
How to fit your Easy-Close HYDRO-FIT Cuffs
Easier to put on and adjust than our Classic Cuffs, our Easy-Close Cuffs have a Velcro-like closure system. (Work out more aggressively in the water? Our patented Classic Cuffs—U.S. Patent No. 4, 858,913—may be a better choice for you.) Here’s how to put your Easy-Close Cuffs on your ankles, only one of four positions Cuffs can be worn. Ankle placement is suitable for both shallow and deep water.
Step 1: Fold your Cuff into a triangle as you place the stirrup strap below the arch of your foot. Position your Cuff with the large strap D-ring facing the outside of your foot and the stirrup strap resting loosely below the arch of your foot. Place the large strap through the D-ring and pull to tighten.
Step 2: Stabilize the Cuff by pinching it closed with one hand. With your other hand, tighten the large strap by pulling it across and in front of the Cuff. The direction of pull is very important. If you tighten your Cuffs while in the water, pull the large strap across, not up. Pulling up on the strap will actually loosen your Cuff. Press the large strap to its Velcro-like surface for a secure fit.
Step 3: Adjust the stirrup strap by pulling down on the loose end of the strap. Secure in place by fastening the Velcro-like closure to the strap and sliding the stirrup strap “stay” to secure the strap’s position.
Avoid positioning your Cuff too low on your leg. Correct positioning allows your ankle to move freely without your Cuff touching the top of your foot.
To remove your Easy-Close Cuffs, pull gently on the large strap and loosen. Be sure you’re in a stable environment when you put on and take off your Cuffs.
X-COUNTRY SKI / Sweep
Simulating the exercise action of crosscountry skiing in the deep water is an excellent form of non-impact aerobic exercise. In this version sweep your arms forward and back to recruit more muscles and strengthen your core.

Easy close Hydro-fit cuffs
Posted by Lee on 4th May 2016
I have used the Hydro-fit cuffs in the past while teaching classes. I am now using them for myself after surgery on my knees. They provide the same great resistance as the ones with the buckles, but are much easier to use. I have arthritis in my hands and had difficulty with the buckles. The
Velcro closures on the easy-close cuffs are much easier to use and provide the same stability as the other ones. As long as they are properly taken care of, the Velcro should hold up well in the water.

My older clients prefer the Easy Close style. Much easier on their hands when getting ready for their hard workouts! I have used Hydro Fit cuffs for about 18 years and even pack them in my suitcase when traveling to hotels with pools!!
