DiveR, Australian producer of a top line freediving fins has introduced fins reinforced by TeXtreme technology. The new fin transfers the load progressively from the heel to the toe while remaining soft yet responsive. TeXtreme technology is based on using Spread Tows instead of traditional round tows to create ultra-light weight, high-performance products.
“We were looking for a new flagship fin that generated the most power with the least amount of effort. We partnered up with TeXtreme engineers to find the right solution both in carbon fibre and resin system to achieve our goals, and now we’re excited to present our TeXtreme Innegra fin that’s an ultra-light fin that can deform far more than previous carbon/aramid fins without failing,” says Ray Powell, founder of DiveR Australia.DiveR, Australian producer of a top line freediving fins has introduced fins reinforced by TeXtreme technology.

TeXtreme technology is based on using Spread Tows instead of traditional round tows to create ultra-light weight, high-performance products. Companies utilising the TeXtreme Technology achieve significant results in minimising weight while increasing rigidity, strength, etc, in comparison to other carbon fibre materials.
“Ray continues, “We’re given outstanding results when using TeXtreme technology in our fins and are continuing to work closely with the TeXtreme team in developing materials that add both toughness and mechanical advantage to the end product”.
By using TeXtreme Innegra hybrid fabric, DiveR was able to maximise the weight savings with the thin ply advantages of TeXtreme tTechnology and combine it with the hydrophobic and ductile properties of Innegra to achieve the most advanced fin ever produced.
TeXtreme technology is able to maximise the benefits of thin ply principles where research studies have shown the maximum strength until breakage is more than twice as high when comparing with conventional carbon fibre fabrics.
TeXtreme can be found in Formula 1, America’s Cup, NASCAR and Le Mans racing, bicycles, golf clubs, surfboards, tennis racquets, table tennis blades, rowing shells, skis, snowboards and ice hockey sticks as well as various industrial and advanced aerospace applications. (SV)
