PATHOS SUB ULTIMATE
CARBON FINS FOR SPEARFISHING & FREEDIVING
The ultimate pathos are a clear improvement on the fins from the previous series called Abyss which were already internationally acknowledged for their excellent performance. They are part of a new set that includes the Maximum, the Ultimate and finally the Supreme. Each of them is intended for different uses and is characterized by different sizes although they constantly maintain some features such as design. The ultimate, the intermediate version, are intended for both medium-deep dives and long surface swimming and have excellently performed during competitions on the feet of Giacomo DeMola, Pathos sales manager and recognized international champion.
The carbon structure is composed of two different textures, the 285 T4 4 × 4 twill for the outer layers, in order to improve the breaking strength, and the 285 T2 2 × 2 twill for the core to offer an enhanced reactivity. The particular arrangement of the fibers also allows a double flexion generally called the S curve which is an indicator of efficiency and functionality as well as flexibility and this positively contributes to the emphasis of the user’s performance.
Further support to the athlete’s effort optimization is provided by other fin features such as the flap tip which thanks to its convex profile provides the “kicking” an enhanced thrust at the very end of the gesture, where usually the normal fins have exhausted their performance.
The very short foot pocket sides combined with extremely low water rails (about 15mm) that run along the entire length of the blade help to minimize their interference with the intrinsic properties of flexion of the carbon while maintaining their presence efficient. In fact, the low profile of the water rails manages to guarantee grip on the water (avoiding the drift) without weighing down the user's joints and the blade manages to flex without problems, guaranteeing the typical sound of a slab that sways in the air.
The blade surface exposed to thrust measures approximately 69cm in length (overall), approximately 7cm of which are represented by the flap while the width is approximately 19.5cm overall. The fold of the blade has an angle of 28°, an important measure that enhances the athlete's performance but requires a decidedly trained leg.
These are certainly high level fins whose performance at sea we will be shortly presenting.
