It is a symmetrical swim fin made from natural Malaysian rubber, suited to pool training, open-water swimming, and ocean use across bodysurfing, bodyboarding, and kneeboarding.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe PF1 uses a streamlined rail that flows into the blade without vertical top rails. That structure gives the blade more natural flex than the PF2, making each kick more forgiving and easier to sustain. The lighter overall weight reduces rotational load on the ankles, knees, and hips during longer sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor beginners, younger riders, fitness swimmers, and anyone managing ankle or knee strain, that combination of forgiving flex and low weight makes movement easier to maintain and easier to control.
