Sporasub Pure Carbon fins break due to manufacture's defect

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.
It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
As you you see in my pictures, my sporasub blade had broken from the same places on same week. I have used them tops 30-35 times total. I have actually contacted the Italy where their HQ are, they had directed me to Turkish distributor. Unfortunately Mares, the Turkish distributor of Sporasub, has not been helpful and they simply not doing anything about it. It is very frustrating to see a very nice product in the hands of very unprofessional people. Even if they decided to send a new pair of blade, I am sure that it would be broken from the same places.

this really really sucks, I feel for you hope everything goes smoother for you.... these are the last people I would buy carbon fins from... but that's just my personal opinion I hear these break quite easily. gL with this dilemma
 
Unfortunately you probably won't get much help from distributors now as Sporasub as a brand has ceased and Mares now market spearfishing gear but don't make the Pure model anymore.
 
Unfortunately, "Variant" were realy weaky blades.
All the people I know who got these fins (plastic or fiber), had big problems with them...
