Designed for experienced and consistently trained divers, they offer an exceptional blend of lightness, responsiveness, and thrust power, making them ideal for medium-depth to deep dives and long surface swims.
100% Carbon Fiber Blades: High-Performance Double Weave
The blades of the Carbon Pro Ultimate are made from pure carbon fiber with a double fabric weave, a technical choice that is the performance core of this fin:
- Outer layer in 285-T4 4×4 twill carbon: eliminates roughness, cracks, and blade distortion, ensuring complete absorption of the epoxy resin and a structure with high breakage resistance.
- Inner layer in 285-T2 2×2 twill carbon: gives the blade immediate responsiveness and instant return with every kick.
- The selected carbon fibers, combined with the best epoxy resin, ensure stiffness, reliability, and long-lasting durability.
Double S-Curve Flex: The Most Efficient Geometry
The positioning of the internal carbon fiber layers is designed to generate, under pressure, a double S-shaped curve that develops evenly along the entire length of the blade, starting right from the connection with the foot pocket. This geometry is now considered the highest-performing solution for freediving blades because:
- It optimally distributes the power generated by the kick across the entire surface of the blade.
- It delivers a fast, powerful push off the bottom during deep dives.
- It significantly improves performance during surface swims, reducing muscular effort compared with previous models.

C4 x Marco Bonfanti MB002 Carbon Fins
The MB002 Fins are a new generation of T700 carbon fins developed by C4 in collaboration with champion Marco Bonfanti, designed specifically for freediving and spearfishing. Their key innovation lies in the Reverse Parabolic design, which moves the parabolic flex curve close to the foot rather than toward the tip.
Technical features and benefits
This structural change was made possible by in-depth research into carbon lamination, which made it possible to increase the thrust surface area compared to the hydrodynamic resistance surface. As a result, the MB002 deliver greater elastic deformation, increasing propulsion efficiency during the fin stroke.
Stiffer blades can therefore be used while maintaining the same physical effort as lighter blades, optimizing energy transfer and improving thrust without increasing fatigue.
Structure and materials
- Blade size: 874 x 195 mm, with total fin length (size 42/43) of 980 x 195 mm
- Material: high-quality T700 carbon, for an optimal balance between lightness and mechanical strength
- Convex-profile water rails along the full length of the blade: reduce lateral turbulence and improve water channeling, increasing hydrodynamic stability
- Water rail color: black; blade color: black-white with matte finishes for a clean, professional look
- Preformed 250 Foot Pocket with 3° angle to optimize force transfer and ensure comfort during the fin stroke
Available versions
- 7 available sizes: 36/37, 38/39, 40/41, 41/42, 42/43, 43/44, 44/45
- 3 blade stiffness levels to suit different thrust and fatigue requirements: 20 Super Soft, 25+ Soft, 30 Medium
The MB002 Fins are ideal for those looking for a long, precise blade with an elastic response engineered to optimize propulsion in freediving and spearfishing, combining advanced materials with an innovative design.
MB001 Carbon Fins for Freediving and Spearfishing
The MB001 fins are designed by C4 in collaboration with Marco Bonfanti, specifically developed for the needs of freedivers and spearfishers. Made from T700 carbon, they deliver an optimal combination of lightness, elasticity, and mechanical strength.
Reverse Parabolic Lamination Design and Technology
The main feature of the MB001 is the Reverse Parabolic: the parabolic flex curve is positioned close to the foot rather than at the tip, thanks to advanced lamination studies. This increases the thrust surface area in relation to hydrodynamic resistance, improving the mechanical behavior of the blade and significantly increasing propulsion.
The larger thrust surface makes it possible to use stiffer blades while maintaining the same level of effort, optimizing finning efficiency and performance in the water.
Technical Features of the Blade and Water Rails
- Blade size: 806 × 195 mm
- Fin size, size 42/43: 920 × 195 mm
- Material: T700 Carbon
- Available stiffnesses: 20 Super Soft, 25 Soft, 30 Medium
- Black water rails with a rounded profile to reduce turbulence, extending along the full length of the blade to improve water channeling and reduce edge vortices
Foot Pockets and Sizes
The MB001 fins are fitted with 250 foot pockets pre-shaped with a 3° angle, designed to ensure excellent comfort and smooth, direct power transmission.
The model is available in 7 sizes: 36/37, 38/39, 40/41, 41/42, 42/43, 43/44, 44/45, ensuring a precise and secure fit.
Applications
These carbon fins are specifically developed for freediving and spearfishing, offering a perfect balance between stiffness and elasticity for efficient thrust and greater underwater autonomy.
Carbon Pro Maximum Fins - Pathos
The Pathos Carbon Pro Maximum Fins are the ideal choice for spearfishing in shallow and medium-shallow water, where reaction speed, lightness, and immediate thrust make the difference. Designed as an evolution of the Fireblade and included in the Pathos carbon range alongside the Ultimate and Supreme, the Maximum stand out for their specific flex curve, more compact longitudinal dimensions, and a blade-to-foot pocket angle engineered to deliver excellent performance even for users without an extreme training background.
Carbon Fiber Fabric
The Carbon Pro Maximum blades are made from pure 285-T4 and 285-T2 carbon fiber, a combination that ensures high strength and instant response. The selected carbon fibers, paired with top-quality epoxy resin, provide stiffness, reliability, and long service life. The outer 285-T4 4×4 weave eliminates roughness, cracking, and blade distortion by ensuring complete resin impregnation, while the inner 285-T2 2×2 weave ensures a fast blade return.
Production Process
Each pair is heat-treated for 36 hours at 8 tons of pressure for 24 hours. This process gives the Maximum carbon blades a glossy surface that minimizes friction with the water and delivers more responsive performance. The manufacturing process also minimizes carbon fabric and epoxy resin waste.
C-Curve Technology
The Maximum blades distribute the power generated by the diver’s movement along their entire length. The special internal design, based on the arrangement of the carbon fabric, allows the blades to take on a full curved C shape under pressure, ensuring the best flexibility, efficiency, and functionality. Blade return is instantaneous.
Flap-Shaped Edge
After hundreds of hours of testing different edge shapes, the Maximum flap-shaped edge not only reduces the diver’s effort, but also adds extra thrust in the final phase of the leg movement. This feature allows less power to be used compared to previous models.
Water Rails
The Maximum carbon blades are equipped with side water rails that act as elastic guides, creating a water channel that prevents the fins from drifting sideways, preserving the diver’s energy. The water rails, with a constant height of 16 mm, are positioned along the blades for a total of 27 cm and are intentionally compact so they do not interfere with the flex of the carbon fiber, keep weight down, and avoid making the kick heavier.
24° Angle and Blade Geometry
The angle between the foot pocket and the blade is 24°, a medium value that delivers good performance and makes the fin accessible without requiring extreme training. The Maximum blades measure 62 cm down the center (from the curve under the foot pocket to the tip) and 54 cm along the side, with a maximum width of 18.8 cm inside the water rails. Blade thickness ranges from 0.66 mm at the flap tip, to 0.88 mm at mid-length, up to 1.25 mm in the area in front of the foot pocket, confirming a stiffness progression that optimizes both thrust and return.
The blade tip has a convex profile for improved thrust during the final phase of the kick.
Performance
The Maximum perform exceptionally well both on the surface, where they allow fast progress without tiring the legs, and at depth, with a quick push-off from the bottom and consistent thrust. They are designed for very fast spearfishing in shallow and medium-shallow water, where immediate responsiveness and energy saving are key factors.

Freediving Fins and Monofins for Freediving
The fin is the primary propulsion tool in Freediving and freediving. Its geometry, blade material and blade stiffness directly determine the efficiency of each finning cycle, affecting energy consumption and, consequently, bottom times and attainable depths. Deep Blue’s Freediving Fins category includes fins, monofins, replacement blades and foot pockets from leading specialized manufacturers, with a range covering every level of practice: from technopolymer models suited to those approaching freediving for the first time, to carbon blades intended for competitive athletes and advanced freedivers.
The range includes systems with complete fins, blades with interchangeable foot pockets and monofins with an integrated structure, designed for pool dynamics and the CWT (Constant Weight) discipline. Individual blades and foot pockets sold separately are also available, allowing you to upgrade existing equipment without replacing the entire set.
Product types
Interchangeable-system fins
This type is the most common configuration in Freediving and recreational freediving. The two separate blades attach to the foot pocket through a side or center mounting system. This layout allows you to replace only the blades or the foot pockets, optimizing costs over time. The models in this category feature blades available in multiple materials and stiffness levels, suited to different body weights and finning styles.
Monofins
A monofin is a single-blade piece of equipment that connects both feet into one structure. Finning is performed with an undulating body movement called the dolphin kick, which requires a specific technique compared to the alternating kick used with bifins. It is used mainly for pool dynamics (DNF and DYN), but is also used in vertical descents by athletes with well-established technique. Available models include the Cetma Taras and Cetma Lotus, available in both carbon and plastic versions.
Replacement blades
Countless blades are sold as separate components, compatible with foot pockets already owned by the buyer. This solution is especially common among athletes using open systems with cross-brand compatibility, such as DiveR blades made from Innegra, or Pathos carbon blades that fit foot pockets compatible with a standard attachment system.
Foot Pockets
Foot pockets are available sold separately, individually or in pairs, according to supplier policies.
How to choose freediving fins
Choosing a fin depends on three main variables: the blade material, stiffness, and the type of activity practiced.
Blade material
The material directly affects the blade’s elastic rebound, meaning its ability to recover and transfer into propulsion the energy stored during the loading phase of the kick. Carbon blades offer a high elastic rebound coefficient and low weight, characteristics that result in a more efficient kick for the same muscular effort. Fiberglass blades provide a more progressive response than carbon, with greater tolerance for technical errors; they are a common choice for those refining their technique. Innegra composite material blades - featured in the DiveR range - combine light weight with superior impact resistance compared to pure carbon, making them suitable both for intensive training and for use in environments with rocky seabeds. Technopolymer or plastic blades are the entry-level solution for the discipline: they cost less, are more robust than fiber blades, and are suitable for those developing basic technique.
Stiffness
Blade stiffness is the most critical technical variable when choosing. A blade that is too stiff for the diver’s leg strength will not flex fully during the kick, reducing propulsion efficiency. A blade that is too soft flexes excessively, wasting energy. The correct stiffness depends on body weight, leg strength, and kick frequency. Several manufacturers - especially C4 - offer the same blade in multiple stiffness grades to allow a customized selection.
Discipline practiced
For open-water freediving (vertical apnea, CWT), classic bifins are the most versatile setup. The monofin is the preferred choice for dynamic apnea in the pool, while for pool training there are plastic models with moderate stiffness, such as the C4 Wolverine, suited to continuous finning without the risk of over-fatiguing the muscles. For competitive freedivers or those targeting significant depths, carbon blades — such as the H Dessault range (Fast HD, Pershing HD, Tank HD, Minimal HD) or the C4 MB001 / MB002 — represent the benchmark technical tier.
Size and fit
The fin foot pocket should fit snugly around the foot without leaving empty spaces and without compressing the toes. If using a neoprene sock, you need to account for the added volume and choose a size up from your regular shoe size. Most models in this category are available in a wide range of sizes, with variants covering European sizes from 36 to 47 depending on the brand.
Materials and technical features
Carbon
Carbon fiber is the top material for high-performance freediving fin blades. The carbon blades in this category—C4, Cetma, DiveR Ultra Carbon, Pathos, H Dessault, Sigal Sub Tsunami—vary in blade geometry, blade angle, number of carbon layers, and the type of resin used in the lamination. Cetma, in particular, applies an engineered stiffness distribution method along the length of the blade, with differentiated stiffness zones that allow progressive, controlled flex. DiveR uses high-strength composite materials such as Innegra, a high-performance thermoplastic fiber paired with carbon to increase impact resistance without significantly increasing weight.
Glass fiber (fiberglass)
Fiberglass blades—found in the C4 FBG range (Umberto Pelizzari White and Black)—provide a more progressive flex than carbon. Fiberglass is less stiff and absorbs part of the energy from the fin stroke, making technique less critical but offering lower elastic return. They are suitable for divers who are developing their technique and want a material with a wider margin for error.
Technopolymer and plastic
Plastic or technopolymer models—such as the C4 Umberto Pelizzari line (Aurea, Sideral, Ghost) and the Cetma Lotus Plastic—are made with technical polymers that provide controlled flexibility and impact resistance. They are suitable for learning, pool training, or recreational use. The Cressi Gara Modular Impulse and Mares X-Wing Pro models fall into this range, offering modular systems with interchangeable blades at an accessible price.
Silicone
Silicone is the material used for some foot pockets—such as the Sportech C4—because of its ability to conform to the foot, its resistance to deformation over time, and its ability to maintain uniform contact with the blade during finning. Silicone does not absorb water and does not harden in cold conditions, maintaining consistent properties across different temperature conditions.
Practical use
Open-water freediving – CWT and vertical freediving
For vertical dives in the sea, bifins with medium-length blades (generally 80-95 cm) allow efficient alternating finning during descent and ascent. Choosing the right stiffness is crucial: a blade that is too stiff during descent limits a sustainable finning cadence.
Pool dynamic – DYN and DNF
For pool dynamic, the monofin is the dominant tool in the DYN (Dynamic With Fins) competitive disciplines and is also used in distance training. The dolphin kick requires an integrated body technique that must be developed progressively. For DNF (Dynamic No Fins) and basic pool training, plastic models such as the C4 Wolverine are available with moderate stiffness, suitable for repeated sessions.
Training and technical progression
Those approaching the discipline can start with technopolymer blades—which are less technically demanding—and progressively move on to fiberglass or carbon blades as their finning technique becomes more established. This progression makes it possible to appreciate the behavior of stiff blades without the risk of developing muscular compensations caused by using materials that are too high-performance before acquiring the necessary coordination.
Transport and storage
Blades, especially carbon ones, require careful handling during transport and storage: they must be protected from impacts and lateral pressure that could cause delamination or fiber breakage. For this reason, Deep Blue also offers the Freediving Bags category, with dedicated fin bag and monofin bag models.
