Features:
- CRESSI Maui Open Heel Snorkelling Fins are engineered for lightness, comfort, and performance, making them the perfect choice for travel, casual snorkelling, and dive centre use.
- Compact and easy to stow, they are designed to deliver efficient propulsion without requiring great strength, making them suitable for snorkelers of all ages and fitness levels.
- The Maui incorporates advanced finite element design technology, previously used in higher-end models like the Impulse and Sprint.
- This ensures a refined structure and optimised performance in a more compact package.
- Its dual material blade design features two rigid lateral wings that direct water flow into the central blade area, where a softer and more elastic compound creates flexibility.
- The result is the spoon effect, a dynamic motion that provides powerful propulsion while maintaining smooth and natural kicking. Comfort and adaptability are central to the Maui design.
- The open heel foot pocket can be worn barefoot or with light socks, while the anatomical heel piece made of soft rubber provides excellent support and reduces irritation.
- The wraparound grab handle minimizes protrusion and prevents chafing, ensuring the fins are both comfortable and secure during use. One of the most notable features is the patented Elastic Bungee Strap (EBS) system.
- The strap is covered in fabric to prevent wear on the elastic elements, offering long-term durability. It allows for fast and simple donning while automatically adjusting for a snug fit.
- A built-in cleat on the strap enables fine-tuning of tightness depending on whether the user is wearing socks or going barefoot, giving complete control over fit and comfort.
- Additional convenience features make the Maui highly practical. The compact blade length makes them easy to pack for travel, while colour-coded heel pieces help dive centres and rental operations organise different sizes.
The principal characteristics of the Maui fin are lightness and ease of use, even for those without well-trained legs.
Its weight and dimensions make it easy to stow, but without compromising performance.
The Maui has been designed with the same sophisticated and advanced finite elements technology used for the first time on the Impulse and Sprint models.
The dual material technology used for the blade means that it is substantially composed of two rigid lateral wings that direct the flow of water to the central section, where the overlaying of a softer and more elastic material makes it more flexible.
In this way, the blade flexes to create a "spoon effect", thereby contributing considerable propulsive force.
The fin can be used barefoot or with light socks.
The fabric covering of the EBS strap prevents the perishing of the elastic elements.
The heel piece is in soft, anatomical rubber.
The grab handle for fitting the fin wraps around the ankle so as to reduce protrusion and avoid chafing while swimming.
Even though the EBS (Elastic Bungee Strap) itself permits great adaptability and makes donning the fin particularly easy, we have fitted a cleat to the elastic strap to permit further adjustment. This function permits the user to obtain micro-adjustments - depending on whether they are wearing a sock or not - or simply to loosen or tighten to ensure the foot is held firmly in place but without excessive pressure.
The Maui is designed and manufactured in Italy by Cressi, an Italian brand pioneer in scuba diving, snorkelling and swimming equipment since 1946.
The product is covered by a 2-year limited warranty.
