KikFin Pro - Smart Swimming Fin

The KikFin Pro is a next-generation underwater jetpack and smart swimming fin, engineered around three fin-shaped motorized jets that let you soar through the water like a dolphin. A single-button, hand-wearable remote keeps both hands free while you switch through five speed modes.

The Design

The KikFin Pro is a bio-mimic Diver Propulsion Vehicle inspired by the way ocean mammals swim. Its pectoral-shaped motorized fins allow the pilot to mimic the swift, agile movements of dolphins for an immersive, aquatic-mammal experience underwater. For the first time in the DPV market, you can jump off a dock, boat, or cliff and seamlessly transition into underwater flight with what KikFin calls its electrical wings. Retail price is set at 10,400 USD, with delivery starting in 2024.

On the Water

The underwater jetpack reaches speeds of up to 2.6 meters per second, and its hands-free operation, controlled by slight head movements thanks to the wing mechanism, opens up new use cases: paddling faster to a destination, covering longer distances, grabbing gear, or assisting in rescue situations. The unit is engineered to withstand depths of up to 40 meters. A hand-wearable, single-button wireless remote pairs with up to 10 KikFins, useful for guides, dive teams, and rescue formations. The IP68 rechargeable lithium-ion battery is fin-shaped for cooling and can be swapped underwater without interrupting the session, delivering 45 to 70 minutes of run time. An accompanying smart app (coming soon) tracks location, speed, and performance, and can trigger alerts or stop the motors at a set depth for extra safety.
