Subgear Carbon Mono Fin & Carry Bag

Subgear has been working with Trygons, one of the most successful names in the freediving scene, to develop their new Carbon Mono Fin, which they say has been tested by some of the world’s best freedivers.

Carbon Fibre Technology – Just like Formula 1

Carbon blades provide the best performance in freediving fins. Subgear have used the highest available quality, similar to that used in Formula 1 cars and aircraft. The Mono Fin is a combination of carbon and fiberglass.

Increased Power plus Comfort

The transfer of power from the body to the blade is through a single inelastic band. This band directs the energy to where it is needed and nowhere else. The feet are comfortable in the incredibly soft rubber foot pockets and the hydrodynamic shape reduces any resistance. Cramps will also be alleviated during long training sessions.

Unique Development Technic

Each component – the foot pocket, the blade and the side rail – are individually designed, so that each integral part offers maximum performance. The result is a push that even the beginner will not fail to notice.

Traditionally, the rigidity of the foot-pocket rail was used to power the blade. These fins were called 100% carbon, where in fact, most of the power and stability originated from the rubber side rail and not the carbon blade. With the Subgear Mono Fin the foot-pocket plays no part in the bending of the blade and the rail piece is only for streamlining the flow – the power is pure carbon. As a direct result, the blade can be thicker and stiffer than before. Subgear say they can now claim that these are the first ever real carbon fibre reinforced fins.

Cleverly Created Mono Fin Bag

As it can be difficult to carry a Mono Fin, Subgear offer a mono fin bag for safe and simple transportation of the Mono Fin. The 100% waterproof and extremely robust tarpaulin protects the fin while the handy carry handle and back strap straps make carrying easy.

The Mono Fin is available from your authorised Subgear dealer. RRP £269.00. The Mono Fin Bag will be available at the end of November/beginning of December. RRP £46.00.
