THE FIN OF CHOICE WHEN THE DIVING IS
DEMANDING
This award-winning fin delivers power, acceleration, and
maneuverability with a slightly stiffer blade for divers who prefer
more feedback in their kicks.
While virtually identical in appearance to the Seawing Nova
open-heel fin, the SEAWING NOVA GORILLA uses a
special additive in its compound to provide more stiffness and snap
to the blade. This results in more power and control for divers who
like a stiffer fin with more "feedback." The stiffer blade also
allows for more effective sculling, frog-kicking and back-kicking,
which makes it a good choice for tech divers.
Stiffer blade aside, the SEAWING NOVA GORILLA
delivers all the design innovations and technological advancements
you find in the Seawing Nova. Spotlighting its proprietary G4
(4th Generation) articulated hinge that enables the
entire wing-shaped blade to pivot and generate thrust, the
SEAWING NOVA GORILLA produces a propulsive snap
that can rocket you through open water at top speed, but where it
really shines is in low-speed maneuvering, offering excellent
control when making small directional adjustments.
The SEAWING NOVA GORILLA features a
well-engineered footplate with co-molded Grip Pads that provide
efficient non-skid footing on slippery boat decks or dive ladders.
It also features the popular self-adjusting heel strap made of
marine-grade bungee. This bungee is highly elastic, resistant to
the elements and the soft heel pad with over-sized finger loop is
comfortable and simplifies doffing and donning.
The SEAWING NOVA GORILLA combines classic
SCUBAPRO fin technology with the latest innovations in hydrodynamic
design, then adds a dash of stiffness to the blade to aid serious
divers who often find themselves in demanding conditions.
A truly unique and successful fin that has earned accolades
since its introduction, the SEAWING NOVA GORILLA
continues to set the bar in dive fin design.
Technical Information
- Built with a space-age Monprene elastomer that is virtually
indestructible. It includes a special additive to enhance stiffness
and deliver excellent kicking feedback.
- Proprietary G4 articulated joint allows the entire blade to
pivot and generate thrust.
- Wing-shaped blade creates a near-perfect balance of stiffness
and flex.
- Variable Blade Geometry wing tips arc upwards, providing more
power and increasing stability.
- Pivot Control technology ensures that the most
efficient 45-degree angle of attack is maintained no matter
how easy or hard you kick.
- Marine-grade bungee strap is self-adjusting, comfortable,
extremely durable, and makes easy work of donning and doffing the
fin.
- Re-engineered footplate with co-molded Grip Pads provides a
dependable non-skid grip on wet surfaces.

Technical Features
Performance and grip on slippery surfaces is better than
ever.
- The foot pocket's ergonomic toe box is ultra comfortable while
the Power Plate footplate extends all the way to the back of the
heel, maximizing power transmission while minimizing leg and ankle
strain.
- Co-molded Thermo Plastic Vulcanizate (TPV) heel pad and
mid-sole pad with rough surface provide an excellent non-slip grip
on wet surfaces. The TPV is highly tear resistant and durable.
- Revised blade geometry: lateral rigidity has been slightly
increased to improve alternate kicks and to improve responsiveness
and thrust at full power.
Sizes: XS*, S, M, L, XL.
