The X-Stream fins feature an open foot pocket and are crafted using innovative, high-performance materials. They deliver exceptional thrust while minimizing leg fatigue. The tri-material blade construction provides maximum elasticity, durability, and resistance to wear. The special Channel Thrust technology incorporated in these fins, allow the fins to maximize the flow of water, therefore moving a greater amount of water. The result is greater thrusting power with the same amount of effort. The foot pockets feature large perforations, preventing the "parachute effect" often experienced with other fins.

FEATURES

Tri-Material Construction

3 specific materials for maximum elasticity, high durability and resistance to aging. The result is superior performance in all diving conditions. 

OPB - Optimized Pivoting Blade

Allows the blade to maintain an optimal angle throughout the kicking cycle, whereas traditional fins achieve this only during a small portion of the cycle. OPB produces a constant thrust, which minimizes fatigue and produces fluid movement through the water. 

Channel Thrust

Soft longitudinal inserts allow a controlled deformation of the fin blade while kicking. This channel shape moves a greater amount of water resulting in more thrust for the same effort. 

Riddled Foot Pocket

The perforations prevent stagnating water flow from slowing you down. Eliminating this “parachute effect” you’ll slide faster through the water. Furthermore the openings eliminate any suction effect, making doffing easier.
