- Composite blades are slightly heavier and less resilient than carbon blades, but what they lack in weight and flexibility they make up for in extreme endurance and durability.
- Carbon fibre blades are extremely light weight whilst enhancing diving propulsion and performance, propelling divers at superior speed and velocity.

A core goal that has been set from day one of starting Project Hiu was to be 100% transparent with Our Crew. Our team know all too well the feeling of blindly giving to an organisation hoping the intentions and actions are taken out as proposed. Our goal is to breakdown these barriers and invite you 'The Crew Member' along this journey. By purchasing a Project Hiu product or donating, you will be accepted into a community dedicated to updating via email and social platforms on annual goals, progression and benchmarks, you will also gain access to first hand interviews of community members their feedback on the impact Project Hiu and its Crew Members is having on their lives. Please refer to 'Join The Crew' section for further reference to where we are investing your donation/ purchase funds.

Many shark fishermen in Indonesia depend on extremely volatile and dangerous income streams to provide for their families and loved ones. Today fishermen are forced to travel further and in some cases in illegal water to seek more prosperous grounds, this new threat of prosecution can be combated. By joining The Crew you will be assisting in the investment and acquisition of new 'sustainable income assets' such as; tourism, waste management programs, early learning to better equip the next generation for changing times and finally supporting the community during this transition by suppling food, clean water and any other financial burdens and malnourished necessities incurred from a history of volatile fishing and marine exploitation.

WHATS YOUR IMPACT?
What are we investing in? (YOUR IMPACT)
1) A sustainable tourism program that allows fishermen to acquire and re-purpose their assets (boats, crew, knowledge, rich ocean biodiversity) to build new independent income streams.
2) Currently locals have no waste initiative or infrastructure in place, resulting in (HIGH) threats of disease and sickness. Our Crew are investing in waste management programs that employ ex-shark fishermen to collect, recycle and transport waste opposed to entering and being dumped in our oceans. We are also building the first 'toilet block' on the island.
3) Early learning; our crew are investing in a new pre-school re-build and learning equipment/ cirrocumulus to better prepare future generation for change.
4) During Covid-19 transition has been difficult, by supporting, your allocation of funds will also go towards basic supplies, like food (rice, noodles) that are deposited monthly to our community.

1 - State-of-the-art design and aerospace grade fabric resulting in enhanced durability and performance.
2 - Customised hybrid epoxy resin system resulting in unique fin design and pattern.
3 - 3 Year warranty
4 - Composite fins are more efficient than plastic fins with a better snap, and a better choice for intermediate divers who are going deeper. It also retains its shape and stiffness.
5 - The ergonomic angle in the base of the blade aids streamlining, making both surface swimming and deep diving extremely efficient.
