Quick Basket
This new fin has a long scooped blade with two integrated, rigid, underside spines that catapult you forward and provide instant acceleration when you kick. Excellerating Force Fins are optimized for frog kickers, sculling and sprint acceleration. Ideal for cave, tech, wreck divers and underwater hockey.
The only fin in the world to boast 8 patents. Thanks to the new patented O.P.B. (Optimized Pivoting Blade) system, guarantees 300% more efficiency than traditional fins, with a unique and quintessentially modern design.
The specially designed foot pocket provides a comfortable fit, while the new quick release strap buckle system makes the Master Frog easy to put on and take off. The Master Frog is extremely lightweight, yet powerful and efficient. Manufactured by a patented procedure which molds three different materials in a single step, the Master Frog is a masterpiece.
Adjustable Vented Fin. Original Beuchat patented design. The Contact pro is equipped with a large powerful vented blade with stabilizers, and open heel foot cavity for booties. Power and efficiency and easy to kick due to the vented area which reduces the negative pressure in front of the foot cavity. Approved for French navy and NATO use. An ideal fin for beginner divers or diver looking for an all around excellent fin.
The Frog's bottom footpocket design keeps the fin on the correct axis with your leg (owing to the blade angle) for a smoother and more powerful kick with less effort.While the footpocket may look a little odd at first glance, it feels great and works beautifully.
Force's best selling scuba diving fin. Preferred by Special Forces throughout the world. Chosen by Jens Hilbert to set the current underwater swimming world's record. Ranked among the most efficient in U.S. Navy sponsored research in which oxygen consumption was measured on 200 subjects kicking against a current wearing 35 different fins.
A scientific approach to developing new products is a tradition of long standing at Mares, and this new fin has been designed using state-of-the-art computer technology. In particular, the angle of the blade with respect to the foot pocket, the thickened sections and the ribs were all optimized using a computer, in order to make the best use of the material's characteristics and minimize fin weight. Another result of the ongoing materials research carried out by our technicians is the development of Enerflex, an innovative technopolymer which offers a combination of incredibly light weight and optimal flexibility, giving the fin an elastic return that was impossible to achieve with the materials previously used in this field. The foot pocket represents the latest evolution of the Mares fit, universally appreciated by divers for the comfort, performance and excellent protection it affords. The center stabilizer and the two outflow channel guides guarantee maximum stability during finning, and eliminate any ankle-torsion phenomena.
