Hi everybody,

does anyone know if Imersion manufactures Imersion E:Green fins in black color? I already have a pair of Picasso Black Team fins with stiff black blades. For long surface swim I wanted to have softer Imersion green fins and ordered them from scubastore. They sent me fins that are labelled as Imersion E:Green but the blades are black
Did they send me the right fin? How can I tell easily whether they're more flexible than the E:black models?
 
Hi there

I had imersion E black (Which is black color) and the blades were broken in short time with me where recently i got the green and it is green color blade, but since it is mentioned by them it is E green and it is black color then either they typed wrong E green on your fin or they are manufacturing the E green ones with black color this question can be answered by them if you ask them...

I hope this answer helped

All best
 
Sounds like they mis-labeled a pair of E-blacks. They are much stiffer than the E-greens. The E-blacks have a stiffer blade than the Picasso black Team Blades, so you can compare. The E-greens I'm using now are definitely softer than either of the black blades, and work much better for surface swimming. I was using my E-greens on Monday and was hitting 20 m with no problem, as well as being better for the surface swimming than either brand of blacks.

E:greens are definetly only green, mindyou maybe scuba store is having something made specially for them, the difference in stiffness is VERY obvious, the true green fin will e MUCH softer than your millenium blacks compared to the E:Black which is about the same stiffness in my opnion to the Picasso.

I contacted Imersion and they were really surprised about it. I guess this means that they sent me the wrong ones. scubastore hasn't replied to me yet. Is their service always that bad?:rcard
