For a start try to answer the question: why do we need flippers in underwater hunting? Many will say that, of course, to make speed. This is certainly true.
In the article I would like to give some advice on choosing fins. Especially useful they will be for beginners. But perhaps the most important of them: the store should not make a hasty choice, choose what suits you, about the choice of fins. Our advice will only help you.
How to choose the right fins for spearfishingIf you are new (that is, only doing my first steps in underwater hunting), give preference to the flippers of a Dolphin, which are as follows: rubber fins, open heel, locking the foot is carried out using a special strap. Or other model: Lasta is a Shoe with a closed heel. But again I want to say that they are only suitable for beginners, decent depth for them to dive anymore, just to train.If you are an experienced underwater hunter, the perfect option for you next fins should be in the form of shoes with closed heels and interchangeable blades. The blades should, in turn, to gain a foothold, two mustaches with latches having different stiffness. Don’t forget that the stiffness of the blade will affect your speed underwater. While hunting you can descend to a greater depth or to get a pretty strong current. The fins will help to cope with these troubles.
A few more tips.
Fins for spearfishing should be:
long (at least 85-95 cm, and longer, but not more than m);
only with a closed heel;
also always pay attention to the material of the fins: to give preference to the best carbon or glass fibre laminate the fins.
Some words about the rigidity of the fins. For spearfishing, the most suitable fins of medium hardness, but experienced hunters should choose the most hard. They are easy to find, usually they are black.
Advise you to pay attention (especially beginners) on the fins of thermoplastic. These fins are the most durable, long time will not break. Fiberglass fins are the most elastic, carbon have only one drawback — when false move can break easily.
In conclusion, I would like to draw your attention to the fins between the two brands.
The fins of the Italian company “mares”
They are designed for beginners underwater hunters. Their design is as follows: three guide channel, and at the end installed the stabilizer, thus preventing the rotation of the plane of the fins. These fins are ideal, if you decide to hunt in the water with a strong current. It is their rigidity and the specific shape of the blades will allow you to quickly gain speed or easy to get out of the counter current. By the way, it is possible to buy the fins for spearfishing at b from this manufacturer.
The fins of the Italian company “Omer”
The fins of this brand are suitable not only for beginners but also for experienced underwater hunters.
For beginners it is best to give preference to the fins made of thermoplastic. Plus they shortened the blade (about 15 cm less than conventional fins), also a large blade pitch angle. All this will help the newcomer to adapt quickly to a shallow depth.
But fans at great depths should choose fins of the brand “Millennium” of the same company.
In the end we must say: it is impossible to give exhaustive advice on all occasions, in choosing fins, follow all the above guidelines and you will definitely find something that suits you. Now you know how to choose the right fins for spearfishing!
