Apollo Bio-Fin

Apollo BIO-FINS - VOTED THE BEST FINS IN THE WORLD.

FEATURES

• Propeller-fin™technology gives extra speed and strength while virtually eliminating muscle cramp
• Higher efficiency means less effort and reduced air consumption
• Choice of spring straps and rubber straps
• Choice of standard and black non-mag stealth
• Choice of charcoal grey and black colour
• Choice of endurance and stiff versions
• Power and speed advantages of the Bio-Fin is the reason it is the fin of choice by Special Forces and Naval divers around the world.

How the BIO-FIN Works

Bio-fin provides lift and propulsion with less effort and more power.

Unlike old style fins, which "push" water up and down, the Apollo bio-fin provides power, lift, and forward thrust on each stroke.

The bio-fin directs water flow over the leading and trailing edges of the fin blade.

The result is lift and acceleration just as in an aircraft wing.

Natural Rubber Is the Best Material

Additional Kinds of Propulsion

Apollo bio-fins have the advantage of 2 additional kinds of propulsion in comparison to blade or paddle fins.

Bio-fins have great downwards force propulsion generated during the down stroke, much the same as a classical style blade or paddle fin.

However the bio-fin creates additional propulsion when water passes through the split blade during both the up and down strokes.  This is "lift" on the upstroke that can't be achieved by blade or paddle fins.

In summary, the bio-fin is propelled by both up and downward finning, with the fin deforming to provide additional thrust by generating lift on each stroke.

Fins Stoke Efficiency

The new bio-fin works like a propeller-fin™ , and is far more efficient than the traditional paddle style fins used by many divers today.

The propeller-fin™ design improves the fin's effectiveness while reducing the amount of energy the diver must expend while finning.

Speed, comfort, and maneuverability ... you can have it all!

Extensive field-testing showed that participants were able to reach and sustain higher speeds when using the bio-fin than with conventional paddle style fins.

Voted "Best Overall" (2001-2005) and "Testers Choice" (1999-2005) in Rodale / Scuba Lab USA's annual independent fin review.

BIO-FIN - Ergonomic Design

The bio-fin is designed with a 20º angle to accommodate a diver's natural tendency to bend slightly at the knees in addition to the obvious bend at the ankle.

This angle is crucial to top performance and comfort.

The result is better propulsion and the least amount of stress on the body.

Apollo's choice of superior material and intelligent design provides divers with quick acceleration and the ultimate in power, speed, and comfort.
