    I love those translucent colors. Do those plastics have any different physical properties (flex, longevity, resistance to UV etc) than my old yellow Force Fin Pro?

    I believe the translucent colors are made of the Tan Delta material. My wife just got a pair of translucent purple Excellerators for Christmas - and they are gorgeous!

    TN, good new's... the Eames Exhibit has received so many good reviews it will stay up till February 20, 2012. At this point we have stopped all translucent Tan Delta production, so those who have these beautiful fin's (made for over 15 years) might have something special. You, can always check them out hanging out in the Eames Exhibit, Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles, California.
