What is a Hybrid Fin?
The All Purpose Hybrid Fins are the newest addition to our line of functional drag resistance equipment. They provide a great balance of good resistance for knee hinge movements and also long lever hip articulation. The Hybrid fins can also be used for high speed water exercises, dynamic neuro-muscular training, athletic performance training, rehabilitation and injury recovery pool training.
The new and improved design offers enhanced performance, fit, comfort and durability.
2-Minute fin assembly is required prior to your first use. Instructions are included in the box, or you can watch our assembly video here. Be sure to separate the pair of Velcro straps that will arrive stuck together and can appear as one.

FAQs
No! The All-Purpose Fins are 5” which sits halfway between the Aqualogix High Speed Fins (4”) and the Max Resistance Fins (6”). The introduction of this new All-Purpose size allows users to choose a level of resistance tailored to their individual fitness level and achieve their desired training effect more than ever before!
The All Purpose fins provide slightly less resistance to the Aquastrength Fins. The Aquastrength fins also provide more vertical resistance which makes them a good option for those looking to do lots of jumping / plyometric exercises. Looking at our entire range from most to least overall resistance you would have; Aqualogix Blue Maximum Resistance Fins, Aquastrength Fins, Aqualogix All-Purpose Fins and finally Aqualogix Green High Speed Fins.
Our new Hybrid Fins come with fully replaceable velcro straps and neoprene pads so you can easily replace them as they deteriorate over time and heavy use.
Yes! The Hybrid Fin features a new “tab lock” system that ensures a better fit than ever before for ankles <7”. Once fitted the velcro tab is able to pass through the leading fin to keep them locked in place.
Yes! The velcro strap allows those with larger ankles to more evenly space the fins by just using the 4 outer slots and skipping the middle one.
The All-Purpose Fins are ideal for everything from general fitness and sports performance through to rehab and recovery. They are suitable for all ages and fitness levels.
Yes, these fins can be used in all types of pools. The new neoprene used on the Hybrid Fin is more durable than ever before. As always, we recommend following our care instructions carefully to keep you fins in top shape for as long as possible. General wear and tear can be expected over time but our fins can easily be brought back to new by simply replacing the velcro strap and neoprene pad!
If the fins are fitted correctly, you should not experience too much movement during your workout. We have also upgraded the neoprene on the Hybrid Fin which features more of a textured / embossed material on the skin side of the pad which offers increased levels of grip. We recommend familiarizing yourself with our fin fitment video to ensure you achieve the best fit before hopping in the pool. Also, avoid applying sunscreen or lotion to the skin where the fins will be fitted.

No matter what you need to strap the fins on tightly for a good hold. Specifically for the Aqualogix version of the fins, an easy way to increase the security of the Velcro grip is to adjust (not cutting) the position of the neoprene pad. You can remove the pad from the fin and then slide it over about 1 inch. The overall length of the fin will now be longer and you will see the back side of the leading fin, when looking at the backside of the fin. This is fine though as you’ve also increased the surface area of the Velcro “Hooks” and will therefore have a larger contact patch when wrapped.
Please refer to our fitment videos for our tips and recommendations for small and larger ankle sizes. For general fitting of the Hybrid Fins see below;

Yes! All of our fins can be worn on the wrist / forearm for upper body exercises. They are ideal for anyone who can’t hold our upper body bells due to grip limitations or arthritis. You can also wear our fins on your wrist in addition to using upper body bells for increased resistance.

While the process used to fit the Aqualogix Hybrid Fins to your wrist is similar to the one used to fit them to your ankle, there is a method to make it easier. Once attached to your wrist, the fins will provide upper body resistance without anything to hold in your hand. You can also combine the use of the fins on your wrist and bells in your hands for increased upper-body resistance. See video link below.
