The unisex and symmetrical shape of these bodyboard fins for intermediate riders offers a good balance between power and size.\nFor extra comfort, we recommend wearing neoprene socks.\nThe use of fin leashes is strongly recommended: they can be purchased separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eChoosing the right fin size \/ Recommended fin leashes.\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlways try on your fins before you buy them.\nYour foot should be supported without being compressed. The strap at the back should be in contact with your heel, and your toes should not be bent.\nIf you want to wear neoprene socks, for comfort and\/or warmth, you will need to go up half a size. Don’t hesitate to try them on with and without socks when you buy!\nUsing a fin leash, or not, will also require you to go up or down half a size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eBuoyancy\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe weight of a fin needs to be such that it does not hit the surface of the water while you are kicking. These fins therefore have slightly positive buoyancy. So if one is lost, it will rise gently to the surface, making it easier to retrieve. At the same time, it’s light enough to be held underwater effortlessly when finning. This design offers both optimum movement efficiency and increased safety for the user in the event of a wipeout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTraction in the waves\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo ride along the wave on a bodyboard and not come off, you need to use your fin like a rudder. The lateral ribs on these fins give better traction on the face of the wave, allowing you to maintain a good sideways trajectory.\nAn asymmetric fin (e.g. RIP fins) can accentuate this phenomenon. It does, however, take some practice on the part of the bodyboarder since it exerts extra twisting force on the knees, so is reserved for advanced riders only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese bodyboard fins combine comfort and propulsion for optimum performance. Ideal for bodyboarding or bodysurfing, they offer a secure fit and suitable power for waves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item large--one-half medium--one-half productFeature productFeature--easy-to-breathe\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid--full\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item one-fifth productFeature-icon\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"productFeature-image\" src=\"\" data-src=\"https:\/\/contents.mediadecathlon.com\/b72596\/pic.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item four-fifths productFeature-content\"\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"productFeature-title\"\u003e[Propulsion]\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"productFeature-description\"\u003eSymmetrical blade: efficient propulsion and compact dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item large--one-half medium--one-half productFeature productFeature--easy-to-breathe\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid--full\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item one-fifth productFeature-icon\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"productFeature-image\" src=\"\" data-src=\"https:\/\/contents.mediadecathlon.com\/b65364\/pic.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item four-fifths productFeature-content\"\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"productFeature-title\"\u003e[Fitting comfort]\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"productFeature-description\"\u003eSoft, comfortable foot pocket made from natural, dual-density rubber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item large--one-half medium--one-half productFeature productFeature--easy-to-breathe\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid--full\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item one-fifth productFeature-icon\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"productFeature-image\" src=\"\" data-src=\"https:\/\/contents.mediadecathlon.com\/b65333\/pic.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item four-fifths productFeature-content\"\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"productFeature-title\"\u003e[Buoyancy]\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"productFeature-description\"\u003eFloating fin.
