Freediving Monofin Carbon

[Linze1106]

Has anyone see anything so crazy! has anyone used this kind of fin before?? If so, does it work well? I think it looks cool and it makes alot of sense. taking a design from nature and making it work. Let me know what you think.

As a competitive swimmer and coach I have used monofins for years to help train flyers. It is great for moving lots of water quickly, but they are designed for moving quickly in a straight line. Up and down as in free diving for depth would be a perfect application, but scuba? you would be able to farther in a straight line, but agility would suffer.
