Scubapro Jet Fin Kelp Camo
The legendary Scubapro Jet Fin has been setting a benchmark for all modern jet fins since its introduction in 1965. Inspired by the original combat frogmen fin, Jet Fins offer excellent power transfer and manoeuvrability in all diving conditions, be it blue water, wreck, cave recreational and technical diving.
The Jet Fin uses a durable rubber construction and beefy shape but features a proven vented design that decreases drag on the up stroke and enhances thrust on the down stroke. The Jet Fin may be a heavy-duty fin, but it delivers just the right amount of power and manoeuvrability for the job. Nukeproof built, short and wide blades and jet vents make this ultra-good value-for-money choice for recreational and technical diving!
The well-known Scubapro Jet Fin comes in 4 colours: Jet fin Black, Jet fin Blue Camo, Jet fin White Camo and Jet fin Navy Camo. There are also replacement Jet Fin Spring Straps available for purchase.
What is a Scubapro Jet Fin in Kelp Camo?
Jet fins evolved from the standard fins scuba divers used before – these were made out of rubber and had retaining rubber heel straps and often shoe-type laces on the foot pocket to make them fit more comfortably. The first company that brought the jet fin into the shape we know now was Scubapro – back in 1965. Since then, it is estimated that Scubapro has sold over a hundred thousand jet fins, and the design has changed very little. The US Navy endorsed the jet fin; subsequently, many worldwide navies opted to use jet fins in their operations.
Scubapro jet fins are often the number one choice for technical divers, scuba instructors, the commercial sector, and the military. Still, they are also becoming increasingly popular in recreational diving.
