After a lot of questions regarding the seawing fins I dive in a lot of the videos . especially if it is possible to do various fin techniques with them we thought its time for this clip.
Having learned to dive late in life I made up for it in my first year by clocking up 120+ open water dives in places from the UK to Australia. I went from a non diver to a technical deco diver in 9 months and loved every second of it. Since having kids not been able to travel as much so spend my time watching videos and reminiscing, hope you enjoy my site as much as I have making it.
So I went to both of the local dive stores near me and looked around for fins. Both of them had regular Seawing Novas, but neither of them had any Gorillas. They said that there is very little demand for those since they are "very hard" and most people dislike that.
Hi, I have just found your videos & subscribed. I have the Novas & my dive buddy has the Atomic Splitfins. Is it possible to reverse kick with splitfins? I’m trying to convince him to get Novas
nice job there. but…. there is a but… thise nova will break in thecarticulated area when you will need them the most to perform. So.. i would carry and pay for extra 3 kg than have the fins break on me.
As always, nice Video Achim. But you forgot an important part: Those orange (and the light grey) Fins are the Seawing Nova "Gorilla". Which means they are stiffer compared to the normal Nova. I only tried the normal ones so far and it was extremely wobbly… didn't like it at all. Guess i'll have to try the Gorilla. Until then i'll just continue using my Mares Quattro for Wet- and JetFins for Drysuit diving.. 🙂 Oh and, did you try the Deep 6 Eddy Fins? They are a jet fin style leightweight fin.. and they come in orange. 🙂 I'm just to cheap for the $100 plus $70 shipping to germany…
Welcher See ist das?

Where do you keep your weights? Is it just all in your backplate?
Damn. Had I known they came in orange…
I tried to do a back kick and I moved forward. 🙁
I wish I could learn to kick just like you.
Love this video. I have Seawing Novas and use the frog kick with them. Just takes getting used to. I would like to get the Gorillas too.
n 'importe quoi pourvu qu'on vende meme des conneries
Why is it that scuba divers never use a real flutter kick?
Where did you get t those sweet fins…
Thank you for this great videos!!..how go you rate this fins for frog kicking?
Thanks
