    The new Cressi Gara Modular Fins and Foot Pockets utilize the conventional small rail system on the blade edges to attach the foot pocket tendons to the blade, and two small screws with a support plate that screw up into the toe plate to fix the blade in place. The support plate distributes the stress from the screw heads over a larger area and holds the blade nice and tight in the foot pocket. On the Cressi plastic blades the rails are part of the molded blade. Carbon blades must have the small rubber rails installed. The pocket is soft and comfortable. The sole is stiff and allows good power transfer to the blades. The foot pocket tendons have moderate stiffness and offer the blade good support without negatively affecting its flex pattern. The Cressi foot pockets combine well with Speardiver carbon blades.



    Available sizes
    38-39 (5-5.5)
    40-41 (7-8)
    42-43 (8-9)
    44-45 (10-11)
    46-47 (12-13)


    These sizes reflect European and US numbers stated on the foot pockets. The European size is correct, but the US size may not be accurate. It's important to use the stated sizes as a reference to the foot pocket only, not necessarily as to how it fits. For example the Cressi 42-43 size is stated as US 8-9, this is blatantly incorrect. The 42-43 fits a shoe size 11 foot (actual foot length 11", width 4.25") perfectly. Albeit it is a tad tight (not uncomfortable) width wise, which makes the Cressi foot pockets nicely suitable for narrower feet. If in doubt about which size to buy measure your foot this way and provide the length and width.

    Put a ruler against the wall and stand on it with your heel against the wall, measure where the furthest toe ends. In a similar way, measure the width of your foot at the widest part.

    Thanks, for a long time I wanted to know how to eat sea urchin. Do they always have gonads or does it depend on male/female? If so how do you know?


    Watching the ab video you've got to be a tough and/or very hungry man :)

    Actually he said it was surprisingly painful and lasted half a day without the pain subsiding. Coming from him I now really never want to get stung. But in his words "it was a new experience" :)

    The brand is officially switched over to Speardiver. Most items are still branded Pursuit. I still have wetsuits with no logo from the time I couldn't decide on any name. The design, materials and manufacturing are the same. The catalyst for the change was people confusing the sound of Pursuit with Persistent, and Pipin using the same font as pursuit for the persistent logo. Pipin, pursuit, persistent.. too many p's for me.

    Are some of these guns in the process of being built or do you actually pull the trigger with the hand that's on the butt of the gun? :)

    Welcome to the forum.


    Interesting innovation putting the line anchor on the side. What is the advantage?

    I agree one name is easier. I can't sit with one ass on two chairs, if non spearfishing freedivers get turned off by the sound of Speardiver so be it.
