Description

In 2020, we launched the Competition Bifins 2 Carbon, which were designed and fine-tuned by Alexey Molchanov with a unique ‘bottleneck’ shape that allows the blade to transition quickly and efficiently between strokes. After many successful world records were performed with the CB2 Carbon in the 2021 competition season, we have redesigned them to create the Competition Bifins 2x Carbon. New colors and an improved blade layering structure gives the CB2x Carbon blades an updated concept of stiffness. Soft and medium stiffness blades favor a smaller amplitude, low-effort finning technique, while hard blades favor other techniques. Shorter freedivers also have the option to choose a smaller blade cut with 10% less surface area and adjusted bottleneck shape to improve maneuverability and spend less power and energy on kicks. The CB2x are paired with Molchanovs Hand-Built foot pockets for unparalleled comfort and flexibility. Available in 6 stunning new colors.

Tailor your foot pocket to your foot, your blade cut to your body, and your blade color to your personality with the CB2x.
