Description

THE ORIGINAL SWIM FIN – TRUSTED SINCE 1936: Owen Churchill invented the modern swimfin for the U.S. Navy in 1936. Nearly 90 years later, Churchill remains a trusted name in ocean performance, and the Makapuu PRO is the most performance-driven fin in the Churchill lineup. STIFF BLADE RAILS FOR EXPLOSIVE ACCELERATION: Reinforced blade rails channel more water with every kick, generating stronger thrust, faster wave entry, and maximum drive in heavy surf conditions. REDESIGNED FOR 2026 – IMPROVED COMFORT: Updated mold features rounded heel strap edges, a smoother drainage area, and a softer foot pocket that wraps naturally around the foot to help reduce irritation and chafing. 100% PREMIUM MALAYSIAN RUBBER: Manufactured in Malaysia using premium-grade natural rubber engineered for the ideal balance of stiffness, flex, durability, and long-session comfort. PATENTED DOLPHIN TAIL FOR MAXIMUM THRUST: Iconic split-tail design channels water more efficiently than standard blade fins, helping generate more propulsion per kick with reduced leg fatigue. SIZE-PROPORTIONAL BLADE LENGTHS: Each size features proportionally tuned blade lengths for more consistent flex, responsiveness, and control across the full size range. UPDATED DRAINAGE HOLE DESIGN: Reduced-diameter drainage hole helps flush sand and debris efficiently while reducing the chance of toe snag in heavy surf conditions. FIN TETHERS INCLUDED: Includes fin tethers and ankle straps for added security in powerful surf. Available in M/ML/L/XL; refer to the size chart before ordering for best fit and performance. The Churchill Makapuu PRO is the highest-performance fin in the Churchill lineup, built for experienced bodyboarders, bodysurfers, and watermen who demand maximum power, speed, and control in heavy surf.
