It's amazing how all the forthcoming C4 products have a sexy, erotic attitude. After the speargun with an erection (http://forums.deeperblue.net/spearo-board/76769-did-anyone-say-erection.html) here comes the bi-fins with a tongue...:t


(the image is "stolen" from italian forum Bluworld)

They're called C4 81 Vgr (81 sounds like it could mean they'll be an upgrade of Mustang 80???).
Rumors say they will available soon after the end of summer. They will be freediving bi-fins (not particularily recommended for spearfishing because of the long tongue-shaped flaps). Blade 100% Carbon T700, variable geometry rails and new Mustang footpocket (the broader and softer type).

Sexy is right. I just hope they come out before the Euro/greenback ratio reaches 2 or that Italy goes back to Lire. Lol, on the latter.

Ivo, C4 will probably have to make a very limited production run of yellow footpockets just for you, ..........like only a single pair!!!

Jim I have to say that the picture is not a fake, it's the real thing: the 81's will be really made with yellow pocket and rails!
But you're quite spot on Jim, as Trux will soon receive a zillion dollars proposal from C4 to be the official testimonial by the name "Yellowfin Ivo" :)


Q: is Yellowfin Ivo a new version of "Charlie the Tuna"? rofl

These C4 are quite interesting..!
But, instead of a yellow footpockets and yellow rails, why didn't they try to use white carbon fiber, as we can see on bike stuffs...??!

A white carbon blade would be more sexy..!!! :inlove

Wow! What a beauty! I can't believe the photos are real. But you are right they do not really look like fakes. Well, I'll have to buy them then. They will go well together with my yellow Paradisia nose clip :D

Rep is waiting you for the photos, Spago. I just need to spread it first little bit elsewhere.

Congratulation Trux for your new fins! rofl

That's true, not just for Trux, the new 81 has yellow footpoket and yellow water-rails. :)
 
Any more information as far as price and release date on these?

I would also like the idea of white blades for other reasons- underwater photography!

Having a white blade would allow you to adjust the white balance on you digital camera on the fly (or the "swim") instead of having to carry around a white board. I guess you could do the same thing with white duct tape, but it wouldn't look as sexy.

Now I'm at home, and I don't have any photos here...
Tomorrow morning I will post some new photos and details :)

81 VGR will be avaible in September 2008 ;)
 
Other stuff most necessary for the package:
