It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Seabike says the prop turns slowly enough that you can safely use it at the local pool โ€“ although you'll certainly cop some dirty looks from the Speedo brigade in the fast lane.

You're going to get dirty looks because you can't do a flip turn and block the rest of us. This is cool in the open water but not for lap swimming in a pool.
