Amazing. I saw those pics Benny that is a harsh bend and yes it is from the pocket.
Good video, any others?
Is there anyway of stiffening the pockets?
How much propulsion must be lost from that sort of bend in that position?
I have a Leaderfin Hyper and I always thought the footpockets were a bit suspect, my feet are rammed in at the arch and there is loads of movement at the toes, sometimes i tape my feet at the end. I had no idea it could be bending like that, i'm going to get some videos done.
I suppose the stiffer the fin the more likely you will overpower the footpocket?
