Description

All it took was watching the tail fins of fish – except that we couldn't keep up with them because our traditional fins took too much effort. Using hard kicking paddle fins can result in leg strain, fatigue and cramping. Because of the kick resistance of a paddle fin, divers often “felt” like they were moving fast. But underwater speedometers proved that these divers were actually moving relatively slow. SplitFins deliver more propulsion with less drag and kick with less effort. Reducing the stress and strain of the kick results in greater sustained speed, power and comfort. Independent testing has also confirmed that the SplitFin design significantly reduces air consumption. Don't worry about how easy the SplitFins are to kick. There is nothing wrong, you're probably already going just as fast as you did with your old fins. Although they work with a variety of kicking styles, you should adapt to a smaller range, more frequent flutter kick for maximum performance. The smaller-range rapid flutter kick also keeps your legs within the slipstream of your body so that you punch a hole in the water that is only as big as your shoulders and your tank. Remember, less drag means more speed and less effort.

    Finally getting rid of my foot bannanas

    I've been envying my son's and daughter-in-law's fins for too long! Mine were OK, but they've warped pretty badly over the past few years and even though I've tried everything to straighten them out, it hasn't worked. The Atomic Aquatics split fins don't seem to warp even after months of storage in a flexed position and they are very efficient in terms of the amount of effort required to produce useful thrust.

    Exactly what i wanted. Fit just right. I am a size 10, but I ordered a size 9 (5mm) booty and L fins. Everything worked perfect.

    Excellent fins comfortable and feel good to use, but from what I am today may not be the best if in strong currents.

    Comfortable and Fast

    Posted by Sam Laine on Oct 31st 2018

    These are great fins. I used to get sore ankles with the lesser quality fins I used to have. With these I can go full speed all day and not feel a thing.

    Atomic split fin

    Posted by James Carusa on Oct 31st 2018

    The Atomic Split fin performed well. I had frequent leg cramps with my old fins, NONE with the split fin design. Love the spring straps!!
