Easy Kicking Fins That Deliver High Thrust, Speed and Efficiency With a Comfortable, Low Frequency Kick Cycle.
Extensive R&D and testing yielded the perfect formula of flexibility and rigidity for efficient propulsion. Atomic multi-composite plastics result in a powerful kick that requires less effort, stress and strain... meaning less air consumption.
- SplitFin Wings "Slice" Through The Water - Traditional paddle fins work by pushing water rearward. As a paddle fin is pushed through the water, much of the water spills over the top surface of the blade and sticks to it, creating drag. Extra kicking effort is required to overcome that drag. The Atomic SplitFin slices through the water with two wing-shaped surfaces, creating lift and forward propulsion more like a propeller. Any water travelling over the top of the blade is funneled into and out of the opening (split) between the wings. Drag is reduced, effort is reduced, and efficiency is increased.
- Propeller-Fin Technology Moves You Faster - Atomic Aquatics SplitFins use Propeller-Fin Technology to deliver ultra-high speeds with a small-range rapid flutter kick. This works in the same manner that increasing the RPM on a boat propeller accelerates a boat to high speeds.
- Multi-Composite Plastics And Other Unique Atomic Features - The Atomic signature is their use of exotic materials specifically designed to improve performance. They developed multi-composite plastics for the SplitFins to maximize the efficiency of the kick with less fatigue. Flexible side rails and a stiff foot pocket are combined with stiff battens in the blade to control the flex pattern for optimum performance. Their patented EZ-LOK Buckle System is one of those distinct Atomic features that make divers love them even more.
