Mike Stewart Viper Swim Fins

These fins are versatile enough for most skill levels. While the responsive design is favored by experienced bodyboarders for precise maneuvers, the soft rubber construction makes them comfortable and forgiving for those still learning to control their kick.

Yes, they are constructed from buoyant natural Malaysian rubber, so they will float if they come off your feet. This makes them much easier to recover in the water compared to non-floating fins.

The asymmetric shape is designed to mimic the natural movement of your feet, which helps reduce fatigue during long sessions. It also allows for more precise tracking and control when you are navigating waves.

The soft stiffness rating is intentional. It provides a comfortable, snappy feel that is excellent for quick acceleration and maneuverability in the pocket, though it may feel less rigid than a stiff-blade fin designed for pure speed.

The winged tip acts as a channel for water flow. It helps stabilize your kick and provides better control, ensuring that your energy is directed into propulsion rather than wasted on turbulent water.
