DESCRIPTION

Whats in the box:Pair of Oceanic Vortex V-6 Full Foot Split Fins

VROOOM! The Vortex V-6 is for the Warm-Water Diver, Snorkeler, or Free-Diver that wants Maximum Power Generation, Response, and Acceleration out of every single turn. The V-6 is Extremely Lightweight, yet delivers greater speed and efficiency than most open heel fins. The V-6 combines the Patented Design Concepts divers have come to expect from Oceanic with material that enhance performance and style. Compared to conventional fins, the V-6 is up to 30% Faster and more Efficient, with Less Effort, Stress and Strain resulting in Greater Comfort and Control.

The Oceanic Vortex V-6 Split Full Foot Fins are a Precision Blend of Hydrodynamics and Materials Technology for Ultimate Comfort, Efficiency and Performance. Fins are manufactured from a Composite Material consisting of a Blend of Thermal Plastic Rubber (TPR) and Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate. The technological edge is achieved with the Patented Nature's Wing Technology by Splitting the Blade to Generate Highly Efficient Thrust or Lift like an Airplane Wing, while reducing the Strain on the Muscles of the Leg and Hips by allowing the water to drain between the Dual Blades. With the Vortex V-6, Oceanic's design team has worked long and hard to create just the right combination of fin size, shape, and angle.

The Oversized Rails add Rigidity to the Oversized Blade for Increased Lift and Efficiency. These Fins are perfect for the Traveling Divers weighing (size dependent) 2.38 to 3.88 lbs (1.08 to 1.76 kg). The Oceanic Vortex V-6 Fins are available in 5 sizes of US 4-5, 6-7, 7-8, 9-10 or 11-12, comes in 5 color choices of Blue, Black, Pink, Yellow or Ice Blue and is covered by a 12 month limited warranty.

DIVE PINK & FIGHT BREST CANCER! For every Pink Fins $20 will be donated to fight breast cancer.

    Bought these fins specifically to complete the PADI Divemaster Watermanship 800 yard snorkel fin. I completed it in an amazing 12 minutes flat! These fins rock.

    Left my other fins and booties at home when I dived Grand Cayman. In 12 dives, never chafed or caused discomfort. Also significantly improved my air consumption. These fins knocks the sox off of my $175 Mares Quattro Excels and Mares Avanti Quattros! Will consider the the Oceanic V8 open heal fins (similar to these) for colder water dives.

    I now exercise with these fins daily in the pool.

    Sized too small, would need next size up. Unfortunate it does not go larger that 11-12.

      Comments about Oceanic Vortex V-6 Full Foot Split Fins:

      I'm a womens size 9 and the 7/8 size fits perfect on me. I've used my first set over 50 times (snorkel/skindive/scuba) and highly recommend these fins. They're very comfortable, durable, and make my speed impressive. They stir up little sediment and greatly reduce leg cramps compared to other styles I've used. I love these fins so much I'm planning to order a second pair in another color :) A+

        Comments about Oceanic Vortex V-6 Full Foot Split Fins:

        I purchased these fins for each of my daughters who have been certified for about two years. They both liked the ease of getting into them and the fit. They didn't feel any fatigue in their legs and thought they propelled them through the water as needed. They were great for scuba diving and snorkeling.

          A nice fin. I bought these for traveling and they work great. The boot sits low so I don't have it rubbing against my ankle like some other fins. Overall very happy with them.

              Great fin for calm conditions. Does not wear you out. Only con for this product is the sizing and it is a good size off. Should be noted before people order to prevent having to ship back.
