Good ideas that didn’t make it, Zeagle Flips

[lexvil]

For those times when you can’t spare much space but may want to dive/swim

Pretty powerful flutter and frog kickers, fun packers since they can be nearly flat, foot pocket being the hardest thing to work with for conventional fins for travel. Zeagle made a slightly different travel fin too but I haven’t been able to dig up a pair.

They made it for me

Force Fins made several variations with a similar binding. Some of them are on sale right now since Bob is cleaning out a bunch of his historical stuff and one-offs. Don't expect bargain prices.

18” long, 10” wide, 2” for both in stacked travel mode and weight

Still wet but that may account for the 1/2 oz.

Well a long story on Flips and Zeagle. For many years Zeagle sales team distributed Force Fins. They help build our Band Name in Diving and Tek markets.. We trusted them and their local sales guy was a personal friend. One day I shared with him the new ideas for the SD-1 and SK-2 Force Fins. The idea was a dream of getting around foot sizing issues and comfort. Then our relationship went cold with less sales coming in. I could smell something and then they came out with their own copied of my concepts. I cancelled all relationship at a DEMA show. Was pain full and we started to have other issues with our " Split Fin" Foil Force. Was a interesting time. But both designs missed the mark. Side twisting fabric foot pocket issues and lack out thrust due to the flat blades. I will say I am back on this Project and plan to produce the most fantastic Force Fins for the future. USA Designs.

After ten years, I finally bought a pair of force fins Bob, second hand to start
I want to fit some mini bootees to them I'm feeling confident and very happy

Thank you.

One Force Fin Design that never was introduced to the Market. The Sperm Force. I was concerned of the whipping action hurting another diver. But learned about future Design to power a ship.

Perhaps The Whale Force instead Bob, The Aquatic Force
or perhaps the Keep Your Mask Away From My Fins Force
