EXPRESS ADJUSTABLE/OPEN HEEL
Although there are many great features to this fin, look at the armadillo hinge of grooved material on the top of the foot: this specialized feature absorbs energy from your kick and releases it again at the end of the kick cycle for a more efficient kick and reduced strain. Includes Spring Straps for easy on/off.Features
- Armadillo Power Our Armadillo Hinge at the blade base absorbs energy on the downstroke and releases it on the upstroke, giving you a power boost on every kick.
- Secure Spring Strap The sturdy, padded spring strap keeps the fin snug on your foot, your fit great, and your heel protected from abrasion. Features finger loops for easy on/off, even while wearing thick gloves.
- Full-Pocket Design High comfort, no booties required. Full-pocket fins give you increased perception of your kicks’ effect on the water. Foot pocket is made of soft material of varying elasticity for comfort and efficiency.
- Hydrodynamic The rubber side ribs channel water down the length of the fin to reduce drag and maximize the efficiency of your kick.
- Reduced Strain Why strain your foot with unnecessary bending when the fin can do the dirty work? This fin’s mid-foot flex joint attaches the blade to the side of the foot pocket to aid in energy transfer and reduce strain on your ankles and toes.
- No-Slip Sole Underside has excellent grip to reduce the risk of slipping on deck.

Care & Maintenance - How to properly care for your Aqua Lung fins?
Care Before and During the Dive
- Avoid standing your fins on the tips of the blades for any extended period of time.
- Avoid hot temperatures and hot surfaces as these can damage the fin.
- Avoid placing the fins in a car trunk on hot days as the temperatures inside car trunks can exceed the temperature tolerances of the fin and the blades may distort.
Care After the Dive:
- Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and towel dry before final storage.
Storage:
- Store in a cool, dry and protected place out of direct sunlight.
Chemicals/Solvents:
- Avoid any contact with alcohol, oil, gasoline, aerosols, or chemical solvents.
- Do not expose any part to aerosol spray, as some aerosol propellants attack or degrade rubber and plastic materials.
- Do not use any type of alcohol, solvent or petroleum based substances to clean or lubricate any part. Do not store your equipment near any oil, gasoline, chemicals, or solvents.
