DESCRIPTION

Whats in the box:Pair of Fins

The combination of Optimized Pivoting Blade system (OPB) and Super Channel Thrust technology make the Volo Race the perfect fin for divers who want to increase their kick efficiency with minimum effort. The use of OPB for controlling and optimizing the thrust angle, and Super Channel Thrust Technology for perfect routing of the water flow across the fin blade, make Volo Race the divers choice. Rubber covered stabilizers provide improved performance. Divers and snorkeler's alike will enjoy this easy kicking fin.

The OPB 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. The Mares Volo Race also allows you to use alternate kick strokes not possible with splits fins.

The Volo Race Super-Channel is designed for the diver who wants the perfect blend of power and efficiency in one fin. The new blade design with a large central Super-channel and two traditional lateral channels provide excellent thrust while maintaining hi-efficiency and minimizing leg fatigue. The blade is constructed of Tecralene and Thermoplastic rubber for extended durability.

Fin comes in six sizes and three colors; overall fin length is 23.2" to 28.1" (59 to 71.5 cm) and weights 2.2 lbs to 3.8 lbs (1.02 kg to 1.74 kg). Fins come with a 24 month limited warranty.

So if high performance with minimal exertion, maximum comfort and exceptional light weight - a combination that makes diving more enjoyable, is what you want then Volo Race is what you want.

    I bought these for my snorkeling trip to the Keys and they worked out great. The fit nicely and were easy to use. I was able to mix up my kicks which made them fairly versatile. Of course I've only tried them with snorkeling but the seem to be perfect. I've read reviews of the old models breaking where the flex is but I can't really comment due to I've only used them on one outing. Bottom line is I'm very satisfied with these and would recommend them to others.

    I am a bit disappointed in this purchase. When I read the reviews, most purchasers said to purchase a size lower than one's normal sze. I normally take a 10 1/2 wide shoe. i purchased the fins in size 9 1/2 to 10 1/2 and thought that should be perfect! Unfortunately, they are a bit too snug and pinch the inside of both feet. However, I wore them for a week of diving in the Bahamas (no other option)and felt that I could not then appropriately return them.

      Comments about Mares Volo Race Full Foot Fins:

      I used it for 10 days of snorkeling in HI. Super efficient fins. I busted my MCL ligament a week before trip and was worring about snorkeling ability. VOLO helped me to swim almost effortlessly long distances. Claims of 30% improvement over regular fin are true.
      I would probably made fin a bit thicker for diving though.
      I have very strong legs (hockey) and fins never bent or twisted on me when I was on the bottom.
      Just great product. They also allowed me just to float on top without ANY fining motions at all.
      Thank you Mares

        Now I see why every dive master I ran into in Grand Cayman was wearing these. Lightweight and almost effortless.

          I use these fins primarily for snorkeling, and they are great. Very efficient, and very comfortable, easy to transport, and durable. Looking forward to using them again and again.

            Great fins, but very stiff. I was not prepared for how stiff these fins would be and it took a few days in the water to get used to them. I used them for both scuba and snorkeling while in the Caribbean last week and they worked great.
