Description
The new Gara Modular Sprint fin is a shorter version of the Impulse fin, which proved to be hugely popular with freedivers worldwide, both amateurs and the most demanding professional freedivers. This is also confirmed by the large number of articles dedicated to it by specialized journalists in sector magazines. Sprint is designed to meet the needs of freedivers and spearfishers who practice this sport in wintertime and when a fin as long as Impulse is not necessary. Both fins have been designed using expensive finite element software programs that allow highly complex and equally high-performance sections to be defined.
The blade of Sprint, like the Impulse blade, is made of a single thermoplastic elastomer, although
it would be more correct to refer to an angled sublayer and an overlay. The sublayer follows the
shape and dimensions of almost the entire fin. It has a uniform thickness and a flexible longitudinal
propulsion wing of variable length. In contrast, the so-called overlay covers the propulsion wing selectively and has a thickness that slopes from the maximum value to zero longitudinally towards the tip of the blade. As a result, the fin offers a new way of storing and releasing elastic potential energy, greatly assisting movement of the freediver’s legs and thus guaranteeing a net improvement in propulsive output. When disassembled, the blade and foot pocket occupy the space of a normal snorkeling fin.
TECHNICAL FEATURES

• Thermoplastic rubber foot pocket ,certified Full Contact
• Standard blade/stringer interface with screws under the foot pocket and side clips
• Extremely thin and light blade in compound made of elastomerized technopolymers developed by Cressi with different thicknesses
• Stringer consisting of technopolymers with elastomeric loads with high flexural modulus
• Foot pocket/blade angle of 29 degrees
• All fin components are also supplied separately.
INCLUDED GARA MODULAR INSOLE
The new insole for Gara Modular fins is recommended for use with thin boots in temperate waters, because it improves the kick performance. The semi-rigid material of the insole is completely recycled. The insoles are supplied as a pair (right and left foot) and can be cut into their shape in three different sizes, according to pre-printed guidelines.
• Down-size Gara Fins foot pocket preformed sole
