Fins
Gara 2000 HF
By Cressi
Description
The first fin in the world made by combining three different materials, a process that
Cressi perfected and patented with this fin, which guarantees unsurpassable
performance.
The blade is made from a special, incredibly reactive polypropylene, which is at the
same time extremely light, and progressively charges up during the stride to take off like
a spring at the exact moment the stride is inverted.
A soft elastomer anatomically wraps around the foot, blocking it with a comfortable
bite, which guarantees perfect transmission of the leg-fin thrust.
A suitably solid copolymer hardens some critical zones of the foot, and is extended
along the sides in two lateral stringers, which go halfway along the blade.
The function of these stringers, assisted by special raised bands on the bottom of the
blade, is to regulate and harmonise the bending, at the same time protecting it from
shocks and abrasions.
The fins are extraordinarily light compared to equivalent models of rubber footed fins
and reduces the inertial masses to the minimum, to the full advantage of the effortefficiency ratio. This fin is designed for deep skin-diving, although some Scuba
professionals and instructors appreciate it a great deal.

Gara Modular
By Cressi
Description
An interchangeable blade which is very lightweight and reactive and also well-adapted
for the most demanding of free-diving use. Thanks to its specifi c and exclusive design,
it’s more propulsive when passing through the leg-kick, which gives an optimum return
of the blade. The foot-pocket is very comfortable and comes in a composite material :
soft rubber around the foot arch, and a rigid part along the sides and traction surface.
It’s ample fi ttings easily allows it to be worn with diving socks.

Pluma
By Cressi
Description
Pluma is an extraordinary fin that makes the most of molding technology previously
used only on the Cressi hi-tech models designed specifically for free diving and scuba
diving. The Pluma uses the same Cressi patented construction system of molding three
different materials to give high performance, extreme lightness, easy fining, and
comfort.
The blade is made from light and reactive polypropylene. The blade is very energetic
and has snappy rebound. Two side supporting grooves and ribbing on the bottom of the
blade allow progressive and controlled bending. The result is powerful, fluid and untiring
kick.
The foot pocket extends along the bottom of the blade to give protection during fining
even in shallow water and near rocks. The foot pocket is made from soft thermo-rubber
and the computer-designed shape offers great comfort as well as making the fins
suitable for long use. The entire sole is made hard and comes with large non-slip inserts,
for total protection of the foot and for excellent transmission of the leg-fin effort.

ProStar
By Cressi
Description
The Rondine Pro Star is a sleek, new design that, like the Frog, Space Frog and Pro Light
positions the blade on top of the foot pocket for optimum performance. The foot pocket
is made of a very soft material that comfortably wraps around your foot, eliminating any
foot cramping that occurs in many fins. The blade is made of the same high performance
material as the Space Frog and popular free diving Gara fin. Designed to be used for
scuba as well as snorkeling, the Pro Star is the perfect choice for the recreational diver.
This is a futuristic fin, deriving from the Cressi deep-sea skin-diving models, which
introduces the use of more reactive materials. The blade is made of exceptionally light
and reactive polypropylene.
The blade material is combined with a comfortable thermo-rubber (elastomer) for the
foot pocket, side stringers and for various inserts. The blade originates from the upper
part of the foot pocket, with a 20% increase in useful surface area compared to a
traditional fin of the same length. The side stringers extend along the blade, continuing
in a protective seal around the whole blade edge. Two stabilizing flaps on the end of the
blade and on the sole of the foot, guarantee excellent stability of the fin during
kicking. The excellent, highly anatomic, computer-designed foot pocket, guarantees
optimum transmission of leg-fin thrust. The resulting combination of materials is a
formidable product that makes kicking easier and powerful at the same time. Pro Star
model is one of the most powerful full-foot fins in the Cressi range, except for models
specifically designed for deep-sea skin diving and is an excellent choice for snorkeling,
skin-diving and Scuba divers
Features:
 Lightweight, Reactive and Fluid Fining Blade
 Strong Polypropylene Material
 Soft Comfortable Computer Designed Elastomer Foot Pocket
 20% Increase of Blade Surface Area

Reaction Pro
By Cressi
Description
Reaction is the most recent Cressi full foot fin which has been developed after the
Rondine. The Reaction is an innovative fin in look and performance. The Reaction is
molded using the exclusive and patented Cressi system with 3 materials. The three
materials consist of a comfortable thermo-rubber (elastomer) anatomic, computerdesigned foot pocket. The foot pocket encompasses the foot assuring transmission of
the leg-to-fin thrust without loss of energy, adding efficiency to the fining action.
The second material is the revolutionary new dual density (techno polymer)
polypropylene which forms the blade, and in conjunction with the third silicone based
material creates a channeling effect. The channeling effect is the characteristic of the fin
that enables a high level of energy to be transferred in both up and down strokes of the
kick pattern.
The blade originates from the upper part of the foot pocket, with a 20% increase in
useful surface area compared to a traditional fin of the same length. The blade also has
a differentiated thickness and gets thinner towards the edge to guarantee greater and
more uniform bending. The side stringers are made from two different materials that
alternate with each other and overlap in different zones to obtain a structure with
controlled flexibility in the different areas of the blade. To all these excellent features,
Reaction adds a new, longer, more flexible and lighter blade that provides excellent
thrust with minimum muscle fatigue and the smallest expenditure of energy.

Rondinella
By Cressi
Description
All of Cressi's fifty-year experience has gone into these fins, which are a modern revival
of the successful principles of the rubber Rondine fins. As with other Cressi Fins, the
blade is positioned on top of the foot pocket for perfect blade alignment with your leg.
The Rodinella utilizes a unique short blade made of a very durable and lightweight, yet
resilient polypropylene material that optimizes performance and blade stability. During
molding a soft, flexible thermo-rubber (elastomer), foot pocket is coalesced with the
blade to form as one with the blade. This same thermo-plastic is used for the fin frames
and for some inserts. This material extends from the foot pocket through the blade,
along the sides and fin tips. This mix makes the Rondinella fins light and powerful: they
are easy to use, not too demanding, and perform generously at the same
time. Rondinella fins are perfect for snorkeling, free diving, and long swims.
Features:
 Light Powerful Polypropylene Blade
 Ultra-Soft, Elastomer Comfortable Foot Pocket
 50 Years of Cressi Experience
 Perfect for Snorkeling, Free Diving, and Long Swims

Frog
By Cressi
Description
The Cressi Frog Fin has been a classic in the Cressi range for many years and has a huge
following from divers in every corner of the planet. The fin is skillfully made with a
combination of a strong copolymer and a soft elastomer. This Composite design delivers
efficiency when kicking and exceptional comfort.
The blade originates from the upper part of the foot pocket, with a 20% increase in
useful surface area compared to a traditional fin of the same length. A pair of mediumlarge Frog fins is about 8.5 inches wide by 25 inches long and is made of a Copolymer
called ethylene-vinyl-acetate. Ethylene-vinyl-acetate is a state of the art plastic that has
good memory. The materials memory allows the fin to snap back into its original
position or angle without "going flat". This creates a comfortable gentle kicking fin that
delivers nice power, without inducing leg cramps. Running nearly the fins outside blade
length are raised, rubber-like ridges. A pair of smaller ribs runs down the fin's center.
These stiff ribs channel water onto the fins blade. As water streams down the leg, it
continues in a smooth transition across the length of the fin. There is no water
hydroplaning or skidding on either the up or down stroke. No hydroplaning means
better power and control for the diver. Each kick’s up and down stroke are power
movements and drag is minimized. The Frog’s innovative computer designed footpocket further aids control and comfort. The pocket's top edge is lined with comfortably
soft, curved, rubber-like techno-plastic. Its bottom portion extends back about four
inches, giving support under all or most of your foot. When your foot is supported, more
of the power from your leg and foot is transferred to the kick.
The Frog is heavier Cressi model. A Heavier fin is more durable and useful for the
working diver or instructors who demand strength and comfort. The Cressi Frog also
works well when wearing a dry suit or thick cold water wet suit, very popular also in
diving schools and excellent for rentals.
It is easy to walk backwards or sideways in
Frogs. Small bar-like treads on the bottom provide traction when standing on a slippery
surface. The impact resistant plastic quick-release buckles are easy to operate, even
with gloves; buckles have a sleek finish and reliably locking mechanism to lock the strap
in place. They buckles rotate an impressive 300 degrees, so no matter how high your
arch or how high your heel strap is worn, the buckle rotates for a non-crimped, perfect
fit.

Master Frog
By Cressi
Description
The first strapped fin molded using the exclusive and patented Cressi system with 3
materials. The three materials consist of a comfortable thermo-rubber (elastomer) foot
pocket that extends up the side rails of the blade. The second material is the
revolutionary new dual density (techno polymer) polypropylene which forms the blade,
and in conjunction with the third silicone based material creates a channeling
effect. The channeling effect is the characteristic of the fin that enables a high level of
energy to be transferred in both up and down strokes of the kick pattern.
The Master Frog’s blade with its unequalled reactivity has stringers and reinforcements
that are molded from resistant copolymer. The rather long blade, deriving directly from
the Gara 2000 model, makes it possible to get the most out of the flexible-propulsive
power of the techno polymer material. The absence of side stringers in the final section
of the blade makes it possible to side-slip the fin easily in the water, alternating strong
strides with frog kicks to break up the strain and to allow fining indefinitely. The
anatomically computer designed foot pocket guarantee perfect blockage of the foot and
allows ideal transmission of the leg-fin thrusts. Master Frog is the thoroughbred of
the Cressi range of open-heeled fins. Its power is unsurpassed and the fins are
extremely lightweight. This light- weightiness reduces the inertial masses to the
minimum allowing less resistance to acceleration when needed. This gives the full
advantage of the effort-efficiency ratio. Fin is equipped with impact and corrosion
resistant quick-release buckles with quality rubber straps. This fin is designed for Scuba
professionals, instructors and technical divers who will appreciate its efficiency.
Features:
 Combine’s Lightness, Thrust, Comfort and Durability
 Soft and Comfortable Foot Pocket
 Three-Material Patented Design
 Snap Blade for High Efficiency
 Shock and Abrasion Resistant
 Impact and Corrosion Resistant Quick-Release Buckles
 Quality Rubber Straps

Palau
By Cressi
Description
Palau opens the way for a new type of snorkeling and swimming fin. In actual fact, it has
been designed for two specific needs.
The first was to have a foot pocket that could easily adapt to at least three or four
consecutive sizes so that the same fin could be used by all the members of a family, or
by a group of friends or easily rented out in a diving centre or on a charter boat, without
requiring an infinite number of sizes.
The second need was that of guaranteeing extreme comfort and an easy fit even if this
is a fin with a strap to be worn with bare feet.
The result is a fin that is extraordinarily practical, that adapts to practically any foot and
that allows for very quick fitting in any situation.
The blade is made from a light yet responsive material that assures a kick that is fluid,
effortless yet at the same time quite powerful.
The strap has a strong ring on the upper part to allow reversal of the strap itself or to fix
the fins to the body or the equipment.
Palau is available in 5 sizes that cover shoe sizes from 32 to 47.
