Mares X-Wing C-S Carbon Fins
From: £345.99
The Mares X-Wing Carbon Short fins are designed specifically for Freedivers and Spearfishers wanting agility and power, due to their shorter length these fins provide improved maneuverability to the diver whilst providing maximum power and performance even at greater depths.
The X-Wing C-S freediving fins have 11 layers of 100% carbon placed in different directions and with different thickness, pressed in a mold to make a reactive, resistant product. Their small dimensions make them perfect for spearfishers and freedivers seeking greater agility in their movement.
The revolutionary X-wing pocket is the lightest screw in pocket on the market at 270g per pocket in a 43 size, the advantage of the lightweight pockets is that your ankles have to do less work as you are moving around much less weight compared to other fins on the market.
They are sized barefoot so you need to check your sizing if wearing a 3mm sock or above, *please note our pockets in stock are black – brown can be ordered on request*.
The fins are manufactured using a pre-preg vacuum infused process using an aluminum mold that leads to exceptional results in terms of resistance, reactivity and an absence of aesthetic defects. By manufacturing the fins this way it means the fins are much stronger than hand laid carbon fins and can withstand much more punishment during diving and heavily reduces the likelihood of defects meaning the fins should last a lifetime. The fin is exposed to a pressure of around 6kg per cm², and the heating process involves rapidly increasing the temperature to obtain exceptional characteristics.
The fin blade is inclined at 30° to make it a natural extension of the tibia. Pair it with the X-Wing Colored Foot Pocket in olive green for perfect camouflage.
