POD has crafted a line of superior bodyboard swim fins that exceed your expectations. Our PF1, PF2, and PF3 Evolution fins cater to every experience level and are built to withstand even the harshest days out on the ocean.
We're proud to bring you a line of bodyboarding flippers that give you power and comfort, the best of both worlds. POD PF-series fins are made from the highest grade of natural, buoyant rubber and built with multiple density layers for lasting, rugged construction. With their unique, cutting-edge design, all our POD flippers give you the speed and performance you desire and maximum comfort that lasts through even the most extended riding sessions.
Choosing the right pair of POD Rubber Swim fins
When choosing a pair of fins, POD Ware highly recommends that "Comfort" and "Fit" be the number one most important factor.
The second should be "Performance", and the third is "Price", as we say… If you have Comfort and Performance, it is worth the price you pay.
Let's address these two bodyboarding fins features
1. Comfort
The fin should fit snugly without squeezing your foot or toes. If it squeezes, you'll get cramps.
The opening of the foot pocket and fin strap should be nice and snug. If either is loose, they will likely slip off in the surf.
However, it is less than a few millimetres around the foot pocket opening, so you can wear 3mm neoprene socks. It is snug around the foot pocket, but the fin strap is still loose. Use our neoprene heal protects and fin savers for the best snug fit and fin safety.
All of the POD fins are comfortable and are top-of-the-line quality rubber. Make sure you pick the size that corresponds with our sizing foot chart info given.
We understand that selecting the right fins can be personal, and we want you to be delighted with your purchase. That's why we offer returns for exchanges minus shipping costs if you haven't used them in the surf and return them within 14 days of receiving them. This policy is our commitment to ensuring you find the perfect fins for your water sports adventures.
2. Performance
A fin should provide good thrust. We offer "symmetric," a blade shaped the same on both sides. This provides excellent balance and less load on your feet, ankles, and knees.
Asymmetric fins have a diagonal blade; even so, the PF3 POD fin's asymmetric blade has been designed with the blade curvature towards the centre to feel more like the asymmetric blade, with the extra advantage of extra trust and wave-holding ability.
Shorter blades provide quicker starts, but you must give more kicks to get the same distance as a longer fin. However, longer blade fins can add much more load to your feet, ankles, and knees.
Now, here's a rundown of our POD Bodyboarding Fins and what they are best suited for:
PF1's POD Swim Fins
It is a streamlined, sleek design for entry-level Bodyboarding and Drop Knee Bodyboarding.
The unique Splay Rails® combined with a symmetric blade provides good balance and control. These Splay Rails® are designed to quickly disperse water with a balanced propulsion. Similarly, the precise engineering and Siccut® design of the PF2 fins provide even more powerful thrust.
The drainage design ensures rapid water and sand release from the foot pocket, which has been extended for versatile fittings. This provides a comfortable fit.
PF2 POD Fins
These are an advanced rubber flippers model for surfing fins compared to the PF1s. They are far more robust, making them superior Bodyboarding and/or drop-knee bodyboarding fins.
The precise engineering and streamlined Siccut® design, combined with the unique Splay Rails® and symmetric Chisel Blade®, provide excellent balance and a more powerful kick with directed thrust, speed, and control. They are lightweight, with deep channels and vertical rails that produce more excellent wave-holding stability.
The pocket has been extended for versatile fittings, and the drainage design ensures rapid water and sand release. Tread Rails® run along the outside of the foot pocket, providing extra strength and durability.
PF3 Evolution POD Surf Fins
Asymmetric surf fins are the finest performance for Prone Bodyboarding and Drop Knee Bodyboarding.
PF3s have been proven to be the world's first asymmetric fins with a closer balance than symmetric fins. This, in turn, reduces the load across the feet, ankles, and knees. The unique design of the PF3 fins, particularly the vertical rails and asymmetric blade flex, sets them apart from other fins in the market.
These attributes provide a powerful kick with directed thrust, balance, speed, control, and more significant wavehold stability. The foot pocket is extended for versatile fittings, and the drainage design guarantees rapid water and sand release to prevent foot irritation.
