The Amphibian "Flip Fin" - Take the Next Step into the Future of Fins
Appears in
Sport Diver Magazine Marketplace April 2007
The days of dragging your fins in and out of the water are finally over! Omega Aquatics has introduced a totally new class of fins, Dynamic Scuba Fins (or "flip fins"). Strap on a pair of Amphibians™ and you will never go back to traditional fins.
The revolutionary and durable Aqua-Hinge™ mechanism and highly efficient blade design provide an essential combination of performance and safety for scuba divers at all levels.
A natural evolution within the industry, the Amphibian™ fin system is designed to be strapped on prior to entering the water and removed after exiting. The heavy-duty springs push the soft blade webbing up to ride gently against the shin while on the surface. This makes walking, climbing boat ladders and other movements as easy as wearing no fins at all. Once in the water, the Amphibian™ blade is flipped down into swimming position by simply kicking naturally in the water, and flipped back up by pushing back on the release lever before getting out.
The Amphibian™ is made in the USA and comes with a lifetime warranty.
Some recent Quotes from flipfin.com:
"Finally, a fin that is as intelligently designed as the rest of the gear that I use professionally"
"My main struggles are trying to squeeze my fins on last with so much weight already on my back from the rest of my gear. I would love to be able to simply walk into the water with my fins on, and descend."
"For those of us with big feet, whose fins stick like glue to our booties, we can just flip them up and climb out - WOW! Gonna love 'em."
