Details

The founder of Omega Aquatics, an experienced veteran of the Special Forces, recognized the need for a fin that was maneuverable both in and out of the water to eliminate the risk of military divers drifting away as they attempted to put on fins in the water while fully loaded with scuba gear and weapons.

Now, after many years in development, Stealth® and Stealth Max® Flipfins are used by Military, Navy, Special Forces and Rescue Divers in US and around the world. With a long blade as the Amphibian® model, Stealth Max® military and rescue fins are molded with a stiffer TPE compound, per specifications of members of the US Special Forces.

Stealth Max military and rescue fins have proven to be vital for rescue and Special Forces divers who are in and out of the water all day. These fins are used during airborne water entries, as in helicopter water rescue and Special Operations water jumps. They save time and energy and provide safety during diver's descent and entry into water.

Flipfins® are uniquely designed to be strapped on prior to entering the water and removed after exiting. Two-piece fin brought together by a special Aqua-Hinge™, which features heavy-duty, military grade stainless steel springs, allows the webbed blades to fold up out of the way to allow full mobility out of the water and click down with a first kick once in the water.

Stealth Max® model's long blade provides maximum thrust and makes entries and ascents significantly quicker and safer.
X-Large Fin features enlarged foot pocket that fits most of dry suit boots, Special Ops tactical boots and any regular dive boots.

Proudly made in the USA, Stealth Max® Flipfins comply with the Barry Amendment.
