The Mares Avanti Quattro 4X represents the latest evolution of a long‑established dive fin design, engineered to deliver a blend of propulsion power, comfort and control across a wide range of diving conditions.
The Avanti QUATTRO 4X is Mares next-generation open-heel fin.
It employs a three‑material blade construction that pairs a softer, flexible zone with a stiffer baseline to balance thrust and kick efficiency while reducing diver fatigue over multiple dives. Hydrodynamic channels built into the blade guide water flow and enhance forward thrust, helping the diver move smoothly with less energy.
The foot pocket has been optimised for comfort and stability, with a soft upper section that conforms to the foot and a reinforced lower section that transmits leg energy directly into blade motion. Stabilising side ribs add rigidity where needed and help manage lateral forces so that each kick remains straight and effective, whether using flutter, frog or back kick techniques. An anatomical heel pad helps reduce tendon strain, and the elastic bungee strap with protective cover allows quick donning and doffing, even with gloves.
Convenience features include an anti‑slip sole that improves traction on wet surfaces and a reusable quick‑dry mesh bag that supports drying and storage while aligning with efforts to reduce single‑use plastic. Offered in sizes from XS to XL, these open‑heel fins are suited to booted divers engaging in recreational, travel or more demanding dive profiles.
