This amazing fin has been engineered with the traveling diver in mind. It offers:
COLORS AVAILABLE: Green, Pink NEW!
Comfort
- The foot pocket is designed to be worn with bare feet!
-
- The top & sides of the foot pocket are soft against bare skin
- Neoprene socks or thin-soled boots may be used for thermal protection
- Unique, self-adjusting Comfo-strap is buckle free. This particular type of elastomer guarantees comfort
- Mid-foot Flex Joint
- The blade attaches to the sides of the foot pocket rather than at the front of the foot pocket.
- Prevents hyper-extension of the toes & ankles
- Maximizes the transfer of power from the leg to the fin
Compact & Light Weight
- Fits in carry-on luggage! Ideal with new Departure bag from Deep See.
- Measures only 20.9 in. / 53 cm overall length
- Size regular weighs only 3.28 lbs / 1.5 kg
Power
- Due to the Mid-Foot Flex Joint, the entire length of blade flexes & provides forward thrust. With a traditional fin, the third of the blade in front of the foot pocket is considered dead space & provides no forward thrust. The result is that the HotShot provides the power of a fin that is 30% longer!
- Geared with silicone slings (Power Bands). These pure silicone slings are loaded with energy during the power stroke, which they release prior to the upstroke
-
Twin-Speed Gear Shift
- The silicone Power Bands form the HotShot gear system
- The gear shift allows the diver to choose the best speed-to effort ratio
- Divers can change gear settings while wearing the fins
- The blade is made of a semi rigid customized technopolymer. The result is an excellent spring effect & flexibility to maximize thrust.
- The rubberized ribs are made of two different elastomeric compounds to provide the greatest elasticity
Other features
- Comes in three sizes: small, regular, large/x-large
- Anti-slip rubber pads on the bottom of fin keep divers safe on boat decks
- Grooves along inside bottom of foot pocket prevent foot from being vacuum-sealed in foot pocket making doffing easy
- Power bands are protected on the bottom to prevent contact with the ground
