MAKO “Extra Long” Pure Carbon (Interchangeable) Freedive Fins with Foot Pockets
Designed for High-Level Freedivers
The MAKO “Extra Long” Pure Carbon Freedive fins are designed and built specifically for high level freedivers.
Slightly longer than the industry standard 80 cm long freedive fins, these MAKO “Extra Longs” are 85 cm long, which provide a more relaxed kick cycle for deep diving, as well as all-day shallow diving — all with reduced energy expenditure.
Foot Pockets Included: Completely Interchangeable
Foot pockets included: Completely interchangeable (innovative no-glue foot pockets). Your choice of MAKO Standard Long Arm foot pockets or MAKO Short Arm foot pockets.
Innovative No-Glue Foot Pockets
Say goodbye to messy glue! Our Competition Freediver Foot Pockets require no glue for blade installation. Easily remove, change, and re-install your fin blades whenever needed. Watch our video to see just how simple it is to swap your fin blades.
Versatile and Convenient
With our no-glue design, you can have multiple foot pockets and fins in different sizes and effortlessly move your fin blades to different foot pockets. This flexibility is unmatched, compared to other brands that require glued-in blades.
Product Specifications
- Made of T7000 Carbon Fiber, these high performance fins are ultra light, yet incredibly strong — translating into longer, deeper and safer dives.

Choosing the Right Fin Stiffness
Selecting the proper fin stiffness involves considering variables such as your weight, strength, diving type, and conditions. The general guideline is to choose based on your weight and strength:
- Soft blades: Recommended for small to medium-sized divers. These are our most popular option.
- Medium blades: Ideal for larger divers with strong legs.
Short Rail vs Long (Standard) Rail Foot Pockets.
Choosing between short and standard tendon pockets depends on the specific needs and preferences of the diver.
SHORT TENDON FOOT POCKETS are ideal for freedivers and spearfishermen who prioritize agility, maneuverability, and efficiency. The reduced tendon length results in a lighter foot pocket and enhances the performance of whatever blade is selected. Note that this pocket is compatible with all our blades EXCEPT polymer fin blades.
Both the short and long tendon pockets do not require gluing. This makes it practical for a diver to easily interchange between different MAKO pockets/blades. Some other manufacturers require gluing, especially for short tendon pockets.
STANDARD LONG TENDON FOOT POCKETS are best suited for divers who need more stability, support, and power. The longer tendon helps protect the blade from damage and abuse should contact be made with rocks or barnacles in the surf or very rough water. The longer tendons may be advantageous when fighting a large fish since they provide additional rigidity and help to limit excess blade flex under extreme conditions. Scuba divers who spend most of their time close to the bottom may also prefer standard pockets.
Whether you're changing your plastic blades for fiberglass, or swapping out your black fiberglass blades for camo, it's a straightforward process when you know the technique.
