If you are the type of diver who wants cutting edge technology with you at depth, look no further that the AMSCUD Rapid Fins. This fin comes with the security of the AMSCUD name with the thrill of AMSCUD intion. The Rapid combines classic AMSCUD fin technology with the latest intions in hydrodynamic design and cutting edge materials. This fin has the power, acceleration and maneuverability of a paddle fin with the comfort, efficiency and effortless speed of split fins.
The Rapid brags of having an articulated joint, which will propel you through the water with ease, speed, agility, and amazing comfort. What makes the Rapid so amazing? First, it has variable blade geometry; second, it has an articulated joint. What is an articulated joint? Think about how a dolphin’s tail moves as it swims; the natural structure of the tail bends as if it is on a hinge and provides the dolphin with remarkable power. The same science was applied during the development of the Rapid . The variable blade geometry brings us back to the dolphin. As a dolphin’s tail moves upward, the tips bend down a bit to make it more streamlined. The Rapid ‘s edges do the same thing as the diver’s kick is on the upward swing. As the foot moves downward, the fin flattens out to create an amazing amount of power and thrust. The articulated joint allows the blade to pivot and the entire blade is able to generate thrust. Pivot control technology ensures the most efficient angle of attack is maintained no matter how hard or softly you kick, generating thrust without drag or wasted energy.
The Rapid fins are made using high-tech Elastomer Monoprene construction, which means they are stronger and more flexible than you’ll ever need them to be. Variable pivot control ribs insure that the most efficient angle of attack is maintained across all strengths of kick. An added bonus to the Rapid fins is the bungee heel strap. This design frees you from fumbling with heel strap clasps (a true pain for people wearing thick dive gloves and nearly impossible for those wearing dive mitts) and the annoying task of cinching down your heel straps. Simply slide the strap over your heel and you’re ready to go with a perfect fit. Go ahead give them a try; you won’t be sorry. The Rapid Vented Fin is available in multiple sizes.
