Hi Guys

another question from down under.

i was in a store today and they had a Cressi poster on th wall of a freediver plumbing the depths in a pair of carbon fins with big yellow CRESSISUB graphics along the length of the blades? does anybody know anything about these?

the reason i ask is i have always really liked the footpockets but have never really liked the blades, never felt quite right.

But if they make or have made pockets and carbon fins i would be VERY interested.

My sophisticated guess:

The poster featured Umberto Pelizzari with C4 Falcons and his sponsor's stickers on the blades

Cheers, ulysses
 
Ah ha cheaky buggers! that explains that, but does that mean he nwas using Cressi replacable footpockets or was he using somebody elses (OMER etc). i would have thought this would have been against his sponsorship contract with Cressi?

When I participated in Pelizzari's freediving clinic in Santa Teresa di Galura (Sardenia) some years ago he was using the then standard Aquatic/Tecnosport pockets with with C4 Falcon blades.

Cheers, ulysses
