Fins Gara Team Carbon Blade XLD Grey Camo – Cressi

The Gara Modular long blade and foot pocket system makes this a perfect choice for deep free diving and spearfishing divers of all levels. The interchangeable blade allows the diver to replace the blade for specific diving situations which makes this fin perfect to grow with as the diver’s skill level increases. Any of Cressi’s long fibreglass or carbon fibre blades can be interchanged in minutes without any modifications. The self-adjusting foot pocket is constructed with the most modern multi-compound joining process to deliver a foot pocket that can offer comfort and suppleness around the foot.

The angle of the blade provides the ultimate in efficiency during the kick cycle requiring less-energy to load the blade. This fin can be comfortably worn with or without neoprene socks. The Gara Modular fin is very lightweight, reactive and well adapted for the most demanding diving use. The blade is made from a special reactive thermo-plastic, which is extremely light, and has a blade snap that progressively charges during the upward stride reacting like a spring at the exact moment the stride is inverted.

This development in fin construction gives the diver increased thrust required to keep up with their prey. A soft elastomer foot pocket anatomically wraps around the foot, surrounding it with a comfortable bite that guarantees perfect translation of leg thrust through to the fin. A solid copolymer hardens some critical zones of the foot pocket and extend along the sides of the pocket in two lateral stringers that go halfway down the blade. Assisted by special raised bands on the bottom of the blade, the stringers function is to regulate and harmonise the bending of the blade, at the same time protecting it from shocks and abrasions.
