Apollo Bio Fins Pro & XT Military Specifications Split-Fin
Military Fins - Apollo Bio Fins Overall Capabilities
These military fins are made from 100 % natural rubber materials that enhance the durability and strength for Military Operations. The Bio Fin has proved a superior design for any short or long distances water operations including reconnaissance or deployment.
Operators prefer to use the Bio-Fin Pro series because the natural rubber is negatively buoyant. This increases the thrust and reduces the risk of surface splashing. If the operator is required to discard the fin it will sink to the bottom so as not to alert the target of the operator's presence.
The design of our military fin makes it ideal for helicopter airdrops. If secured to the body during freefall and / or static line drops the fin will bend to the curve of the leg or torso to minimize entanglements etc. Because the flexible split blade design offers only minimal resistance upon water entry operators may choose to wear the Bio Fin during low level helicopter insertion water drops.
Both surface and subsurface operations are aided by the innovative propulsion design that reduces air consumption and fatigue by up to 40% over conventional blade fins.
Apollo Military Fin - Bio Fin XT Overall Capabilities
The Bio Fin XT version being a 30% stiffer fin has all the same capabilities as the above Bio Fin Pro however it's design produces extra torque that is better when an operator is carrying heavier loads or for a very fast shorter distance swim. Lower air consumption and fatigue reduction still apply.
The outstanding feature of the XT Fin is the power. You can use the XT to traverse strong currents or deploy boarding ladders etc. You are able to achieve this due to the 30% stiffer blade, which delivers the extra torque you require. This enables you to do tasks that other fins cannot cope with.

"COMMENTS FROM A USER"
"I was approached from my Pacific Navy counterpart in regards to this useful product. I am currently in charge of the Combat Engineer Diver Training/OPs and equip purchases for the Army divers. I have used this product (Ruslyn Cordwheel) on the Combat Engineer Dive Course and on our recent annual Army Dive Exercise in Pacific Canada which dealt with underwater demolitions. This reel meets the requirements for our use of wrapping det cord and or any various rope like lines without any problems. This is another great item to add in our current Army Diver toolbox."
