Freediving Fins X-Wing Apnea S EU 38-39-UK 5-6-USA 6-7 Mares 420417MED038

Description:

The Mares X-Wing Apnea S are purpose-built freediving fins engineered for apnea and depth hunting where efficient, controlled propulsion and precise handling matter. The blade is constructed from pre-impregnated fiberglass layers with a variable thickness profile and parabolic deflection that deliver a responsive, high-performance kick while maintaining durability. With a relatively short blade (61.3 cm long, 19.0 cm wide) and a 30° inclination from the foot pocket, these fins are optimized for comfortable, ergonomic kicking and reduced fatigue during medium-frequency finning. Lateral profiles with variable height support channel thrust and improve tracking, while the moderately rigid blade offers a balanced mix of power and maneuverability. The black-and-white polygonal blade design enhances depth recognition and the fins are designed to be used barefoot or with thin neoprene socks; the shovel is interchangeable for easy maintenance and customization. Built with a high-quality manufacturing process, the X-Wing Apnea S provides reliable performance for freedivers who want agility without sacrificing propulsion.
