Atomic Blade Fin
Atomic Aquatics has introduced a new fin design to expand its line of premier SCUBA diving equipment – BladeFins – now available worldwide at authorized Atomic Aquatics retailers.
BladeFins are designed as a “paddle” fin concept popular with divers who prefer a powerful swimming style to sprint through the water in the most demanding conditions. The addition of BladeFins diversifies the Atomic fin family and complements its well-established, top selling SplitFins™ product line. These two distinct Atomic fin designs offer divers a choice of fins best suited to their personal swimming style.
Atomic BladeFins differ significantly from conventional paddle fin designs by uniquely combining two frame structures that work in tandem to maximize kicking power. A “Power-Loop Monocoque” engineering structure is paired with a specially-designed “Frame Rail” design to give divers more power and thrust to move efficiently through the water with every kick.
“Single-shell Monocoque engineering is often utilized in aircraft and Indy race car designs,” explains Dean Garraffa, Atomic Aquatics co-founder and President of Huish Outdoors Dive and Watersports group.
“When you use this technology in a diving fin, every part of the kicking motion is optimized. The foot pocket Power Plate and Power Rail work in tandem while vertical stabilizers at the tip of the fin helps channel and control the water down the blade for an exceptionally efficient performance,” Garraffa stated.
According to Garraffa, the BladeFin has been in development for several years and follows the Atomic product design philosophy of only introducing products that deliver superior performance for divers. Like all Atomic Aquatics products, BladeFins feature a distinctive, appealing style. BladeFins are designed with sweeping curved accent lines, continuing Atomic’s “wicked” style evolution that started with its Venom mask and SV Series snorkels. BladeFins are available in 6 colors including blue, yellow, silver, red, pink and purple.
