> S/S Spring Heel 2010 EXP Fins by Dive Rite

Updated for 2010, the Dive Rite Spring-Heel Fins offer an excellent combination of performance and value. Designed for performance, Dive Rite fins are ideal for diving in heavy flow or ripping currents. The special blade design works for any style of kick, including frog kicks, modified flutter, and power kicks. Preferred by experienced divers, this fin helps the diver push heavy loads through currents, maximizing every ounce of energy. Don't let the power of the kick be lost in a split fin design. For 2010, Dive Rite has returned to injection molding using the original high quality monoprene material that was so successful a decade ago, the Dive Rite fin gives divers the best performance with minimum effort. The EXP fin's monoprene blend offers the best balance of power to work ratio, providing efficient finning in high flow or stiff currents. They are stiff, yet with plenty of snap. Plus they are lighterweight than traditional rubber fins meaning legs and feet won't cramp even after miles of swimming. The pliable spring-heel strap allows for quick donning/doffing. A comfort heel pad and convenient pull tab adds to the ease of use. When selecting the size, keep in mind which style suit you will be diving -- wetsuit booties or a drysuit. The Extra Large size accommodates oversize drysuit boots. Available in the EXP black and gray color only. Approximate dry weight is 5 lbs.

Dive Rite Fins Spring Heel Strap

These fins come with stainless steel stretch spring heel fin straps, specifically designed for Dive Rite fins. The spring design includes a comfort heel pad with convenience pull tab for ease of use.

The convenience pull tab may be permanently removed if you prefer.

Beware of Fin Hyperbole

Fin designs are an aspect of dive equipment that seem more like fashion trends, and there seems to always be someone promoting "a better mousetrap." Most of these elaborate fin designs work fine when used to move forward at a modest speed using a flutter scissor kick, and the split fin design tests especially well in this regard. However, many designs are poor if you wish to frog kick or use almost any of the swimming techniques preferred by experienced divers in tight spaces. Even with a full scissor kick, the fancy fins are weak when swimming all out against current, or working to overcome the drag of a drysuit or technical equipment. Full foot pockets and elaborate heel strap systems are also more likely to cause the loss of a fin in forceful swimming. Be skeptical of those "fin performance reviews" that favor the casual recreational diver; many knowledgeable divers choose a versatile no-frills open-heel fin design with a stiff blade and a strong, reliable spring strap at an affordable price.
