Hi guys, we're trying to source a good monofin footpocket in the states.

Was wondering if anyone had some good suggestions - we're looking for a source in the states with troubles as Waterways only wants to sell the whole assembly. Same with Finis.

Here's some pictures...I can't wait, the Pure Carbons (freediving/spearfishing) were excellent, better than anything I've used before (including C4, Specialfins Hybrid Professionals[which were my previous favorite]). Just waiting for the Fiberglass composites to come in...

Here's some pictures and testimonials as a primer...

If only we could find a footpocket for the monofins now!!

Hi Chrismar

Yes they are . I can't wait to get my hands on them. They are waiting to come in.

Manufacturer of UW Hockey, Monofins, and Freediving/Spearfishing Blades. Most blades are 80 x 22cm as a good length but can be adjusted in hardnesses and lengths in the manufacturing process.

Cheers

I've got a pair of Breier UWH blades in Beauchat pockets. Bloody pricey, but you're not gonna catch me...
 
ahh the south african guys was wondeering when someone was going to find these.

are you after performance or comfort dont say both there is always a trade off between the 2. if you want comfort just have the bladees made to suit what ever preference you have for bi fin pockets (OMER, Imersion, Beuchet etc) will loose some performance but it depends on what you want it for, with performance minded fins the market and technology has more or less moved to hyper style fins with wings and contoured footpockets which are generally hand made or pumped out of a mold (something you may be alble to model your self and have made)

just my 2c worth
