Dear ellow diver We are ready with the first product information for 2009. We hope you will let yourself be inspired. Next a product news will be A700, a "fascinating regulator", from the world's leading supplier of regulators!
Introducion of: Seawing Nova
PROPULSION BEYOND COMPARE!
The NEW Seawing Nova, exclusively from SCUBAPRO, combines paddle fin power, acceleration and maneu-verability with a split fin’s effortless efficiency and comfort. Its articulated joint, like that of a whale or a dolphin, lets the blade pivot, reducing drag while generating and maximizing thrust. Divers no longer have to choose between kick strength and efficiency. The Seawing Nova’s innovative technology and lightweight materials make it a fin beyond compromise, beyond compare.
Pivot Control Technology Limitations of traditional paddle fins: The harder you kick, the more the blade bends. Both soft and stiff paddle fins require the diver to compromise.
•
With a soft fin you get the ideal 45º angle if you kick gently, but if you over kick too hard you ‘over-bend’ the fin and lose thrust.
•
With a stiffer fin you achieve the 45 º ankle when kicked hard, but they remain too flat and therefore inefficient when kicked too gently.
Advantages of Seawing Nova Pivot Control technology: Ensures the most efficient angle of attack is maintained no matter how you hard or softly you kick.
•
Instead of the gradual curve of a traditional fin, the Seawing Nova has an articu-lated joint (like the tail joint of a whale or dolphin) that allows the blade to pivot.
•
The entire blade is therefore better able to generate thrust and there is less drag with no wasted energy.
»Clean Water Blade« Limitations of traditional paddle fins: There is a ‘dead section’ between the foot pocket and the blade of a traditional fin which generates drag but not thrust. Advantages of Seawing Nova Clean Water Blade: We removed the ‘dead section’.
•
This means that water is free to flow cleanly onto the working section of the blade.
