Review Summary
The Omer Stingray Full Foot Fins Fixed Blade is characterized by their thermos-rubber foot pocket and for the angle between foot pocket and blade. The 22° (compared to traditional 15°/17°). With traditional fin blades an angle between the heel of the foot and the calf of the leg remains when the leg is extended to kick. This angle causes a loss of propulsion. The 22° angled blade design accommodates for this anatomical characteristic and ensures maximum efficiency throughout the kicking cycle. The 22° angle results in optimizing the power of the push through the water relative to effort.
The use of thermo-rubber of two different stiffness compounds increases comfort over normal foot pockets. The non-vented blades of the Stingray are produced in an advanced composite fiber. Performances very close to carbon fiber blades, but with a nicer price. Available only in 25 stiffness, it comes with Stingray Brown foot-pocket. Extending from the foot pocket are side rails which add stiffness to the blade and prevent water from spilling" over the outer edge of the blade. The blade of the fin is also channeled. The side rails and channels focus the movement of water down the surface of the blade increasing power. The foot pocket is equipped with a large rubber pull tab making donning and doffing easier.
The 3D camouflage pattern is obtained using the IML technology, employed for the first time by Omer for spearfishing gear. A film with bottom sea picture is put directly on the blade during molding to assure high resistance to abrasion. This blade is slightly harder than black Stingray blade. Brown blade pattern and foot pocket. Fins are available in multiple sizes.
