The X Shot Fins are an evolution in diving. Technologies proven successful with the SlighShot and HotShot fins have been incorporated into the X Shot to offer the ultimate in comfort and performance through innovations such as the mid-foot pivot to eliminate foot and toe fatigue often experienced by divers and the “Power Transmission Zone” for efficient kicking. The X Shot comes standard with the Aqua Lung Spring Straps for easy don and doffing. This fin is the ultimate in hybrid technologies, offering an easy kicking fin for your dives while providing optimal power with each kick.
Technical Specks
- The Power Zone, located in front of the foot pocket, features integrated “V Boosters”, providing optimal power with each kick
- The Power Zone provides the diver a mid-foot pivot point on the fin, minimizing fatigue and maximizing energy transfer to the blade
- A new spring strap offers a soft heel pad along with Aqua Lung’s own proprietary buckles
- The foot pocket is equipped with the “Power Transmission Zone”. This anchors the foot preventing unnecessary stretching of the foot pocket on the power stroke resulting in maximum energy transmission
- The blade contains a high performance elastomer resulting in high efficiency
- An elastic blade insert creates a “spoon effect” that pushes more water with each down stroke adding to efficiency
- A customized inner sole provides a grip effect. This prevents wasting power from the boot moving laterally inside the boot pocket
Care Instructions
Care Before and During the Dive
Avoid standing your fins on the tips of the blades for any extended period of time.
Avoid hot temperatures and hot surfaces as these can damage the fin.
Avoid placing the fins in a car trunk on hot days as the temperatures inside car trunks can exceed the temperature tolerances of the fin and the blades may distort.
Care After the Dive:
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and towel dry before final storage.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry and protected place out of direct sunlight.
Chemicals/Solvents:
Avoid any contact with alcohol, oil, gasoline, aerosols, or chemical solvents.
Do not expose any part to aerosol spray, as some aerosol propellants attack or degrade rubber and plastic materials.
Do not use any type of alcohol, solvent or petroleum based substances to clean or lubricate any part.
Do not store your equipment near any oil, gasoline, chemicals, or solvents.
