The SF-6 provides more speed and power than traditional fins by combining three materials to create a fin blade with the optimum amount of flex and stiffness. The SF-6 has a generous foot pocket for maximum comfort and power transfer from the diver to the blade. The unique combination of advanced engineering creates a fin with good low end torque, as well as the power needed for currents and other forms of advanced diving.

DIVE PINK & FIGHT BREST CANCER! For every Pink Fin sold $25 will be donated to fight breast cancer.

FEATURES
  • Three Material Construction: Creates the perfect blend of Flex and Stiffness.
  • Extended Foot Pocket: A Deep foot pocket comfortably secures the foot for maximum power transfer.
  • Non Vented hydrodynamic design
  • Patented easy to adjust strap with quick release buckles.

    Don't waste your money on split fins. These are every bit as comfortable and powerful. I actually went to a local dealer and tried some [$]split fins out in their pool for about 15 minutes. I decided I didn't want to spend [$]on fins. Found these [$] and checked Tusa's website and Rodales Reviews. You know what, the performance difference was minimal in Tusa's robotic test vs. split fins. Definitely not $100 worth of performance difference. These fins are every bit as comfortable and powerful as the Atomic's I demo'd in the pool. These don't hurt my feet, I have never had a cramp in my leg and you don't need to do the big scissor kick to get moving fast. I even outswam my dive buddy while carrying my anchor on the bottom to reposition it before our ascent.

    Good fin

    A little heavy, but accelerates well when needed. More flexible and yet a little faster than the Cressi Reactions.

      Comments about Tusa Tri-Ex Open Heel Fins (SF-6):

      Great fins for warm water diving.I took these fins to Cozumel for 2 weeks and am very happy with them. My only complaint,and its a small one is I would like a bigger blade. I bought size medium to fit my size 11 foot.The foot-pocket fit perfect with a thick-soled boot. They still got me around fine and the quick-release buckles work great.

      Comments about Tusa Tri-Ex Open Heel Fins (SF-6):

      I just got back from Cozumel and used these fins for the first time... like the title suggestes they are alright fins. I personally found them a bit heavy underwater and offer minimal power. a pro to these fins is the sturdy design and great buckles that come with the fins, also they were very easy to slide on and off during the boat dives. All and all i am in the market again for some new fins.

        Comments about Tusa Tri-Ex Open Heel Fins (SF-6):

        I like these fins and have been using them for about 2 years on many dives. They are on the stiff side but that seems to make them good for power etc, you don't have to kick hard. They are also a little more narrow then some of the split fins so i think they are better for packing and travel. The straps are good quality and i thought about replacing them at first but they seem fine, lastly they are very comfortable, no blisters etc when worn with boots.

            Comments about Tusa Tri-Ex Open Heel Fins (SF-6):

            My 7 year old Son and I both have the Tusa split Zoom Z3's. I bought these just as a comparison and I wanted some paddle fins and the price was unbeatable. Last night we compared them to the Z3 splits. First I tried the Tri-Ex and my Son used the Z3's and then we switched.

            We both felt like the Tri-Ex generated a marginal but noticable increase in "sustainable" propulsion. This increase was clearly at the cost of significantly increased fatigue. The Z3 is "WAY" easier to paddle in either direction and much better for snorkeling. Having said that my little boy could travel faster and further underwater holding his breath with the Tri-Ex but we could both paddle the Z3 with almost as much propulsion using a whole lot less energy.

            Conclusion: I will be keeping both and I love both models. Tri-Ex and Z3 in my opinion are the best bang for the buck fins you can buy and they are both comfortable. Good job Tusa and Leisure Pro.
