FINS Gara Professional
3 years down the track from design and two years since “final product testing” Cressi presents the new Gara Professional. This fin is composed of a non-interchangeable blade that is all-in-one with the foot: a specific choice by Cressi to reduce even the tiniest dispersion of effort during kicking.
Constant and incessant research into materials has led to a perfect combination of an extraordinarily flexible and reactive blade and the excellent comfort offered by a newly designed anatomic foot.
Technical features
Blade: made from a special material featuring the elevated presence of shapeless elastic modules (Compoflex).
The use of this brand new, extraordinary material enables the Gara Professional fins to beat even the well-known carbon blades in terms of reactivity. The Gara Professional blade also boasts incredible resistance to any kind of knock, impact or stress, making accidental breakage practically impossible.
Equally with the other Gara fins (2000 – 3000 – 3000 LD) in the Cressi range, the Gara Professional fins are also industrially made using a system that guarantees extremely high standards of precision and compliance with strict technical parameters that are impossible to achieve in traditionally crafted creations.
Another important and exclusive feature of the material used is the duration and constant performance of the blade over time: even with intense, prolonged use, the blade will not wear out and will not lose its original technical features.
Foot: compared to the other Cressi Gara fins, the new foot of the Gara Professional has been designed to fit on the bottom of the actual blade. This feature, together with a perfect blade-foot combination, helps reduce the kicking effort and the dispersion of energy during kicking as much as possible.
The shape of the foot has been redesigned and, if possible, improved even further compared to the already highly appreciated foot of the Cressi Gara fins. The use of a new particularly flexible elastomer makes them even more comfortable.
Who they are for
The new Gara Professional fins are for the most demanding professional underwater spear fishers and free divers, as well as amateur free divers who want to further improve their performance levels by optimising their efforts during kicking.

MASKS Big Eyes Evolution
This revolutionary mask is made from High Seal, a new material that offers extraordinary and unprecedented comfort.
Not only has this new High Seal silicone been chosen, with its exceptional softness and comfort, but the entire design of the skirt has followed new rules which allow a point of contact between the mask and the face that has a very open angle.
The mask rests on the face with unprecedented comfort and does not leave any marks on the skin, even after extended use.
Naturally, to obtain such a result the entire structure of the skirt is differentiated, with internal ribs that stiffen the parts of the mask that are most stressed.
The raked lenses, with their inverted drop shape (Cressi patent), are quite small and are brought as close to the pupils as possible, so that the already extraordinary visibility of the Matrix is increased by 25%.
The headband uses the exclusive patented Cressi system of double injection of an elastomer on a rigid element and allows the buckles of the strap to be mounted not on the skirt structure, as done by our competitors, but on an indestructible elastic element that tilts on a vertical plane and can be completely bent sideways on a 180° curve.
The thickness of the headband has been reduced to such an extent as to make it practically invisible when the mask is being worn.
Big Eyes Evolution has been created to take prescription lenses: a small screwdriver and a few seconds are all it takes to replace the standard lenses with prescription lenses.
The Big Eyes Evolution packaging can be completely recycled and the lower black part has been made from recycled material: Cressi also cares for the environment!

SNORKELS America Dark
his snorkel is designed specifically for the needs of free divers.
The ventilation is excellent, because the tube is shorter, has a large bore and is a well-connected anatomical shape without sharp curves.
The tube is made from flexible, black material, and a soft silicone mouthpiece fits into the end; this is a swivel mouthpiece so it can be placed at the correct angle for comfortable and long use.
The height adjustable mask strap holder has a modern catch.
