Fin Memory

[1.3]

I have some wicked Fin memory - I have tried storing them differently but end up with various tip and body bends. Fins are ~9 months old with ~sixty dives and are always stored inside in my dive bag. Is this a feature or a bad batch?

Is there a question in there?

My Jets will go like that, but only if I store them so they're bent - and then they straighten out after a while of being left unbent

I have the same fins...Just leave them in a warm place [not direct sun light] w/weights/books whatever on them in whatever shape you want for a day or two and they'll form up......

If you are looking for fins made from something but cheap plastic and rubber there really is only one option to alleviate your issues.

And what would that be?

I have no issues with other fins I own - Apollo Bio Fins for example do not exhibit memory. There appears to be a lack of elastic/return to form. I will take some video in the next few days.

Yeah...start peeling off those hundred dollar bills.

Mine do that to. But - I sit them in the cockpit of the boat in the sun and by the time we get to the dive site, they are usually OK. I started storing them flat so they dont exhibit the memory as much -

I do love these fins!!!
