Freedivers, spearfishermen or competitive divers, they use our fins during their training sessions, their dives at sea and their competitions.
Their practical experience is essential. Thanks to their feedback, we can test our products in real-world conditions, fine-tune the feel and continue to improve our fins to meet the expectations of the most demanding users. Beyond performance, they all share the same values: a passion for the ocean, technical rigour and a constant desire to progress.
Estelle
For as long as I can remember, I’ve always felt better underwater: freer, lighter, more alive.
In 2023, I joined the Vannes freediving club to improve my technique. A year later, I started competing.
As I took part in more and more competitions, I was lucky enough to come across Air-Fins. The team’s ambition and enthusiasm won me over.
Today, I’m delighted to be contributing to this project focused on creating high-performance fins: it gives meaning to my sport.
Geoffrey
Enthusiast about freediving and spearfishing since I was very young, and I practise these disciplines with rigour and dedication. In 2025, I was fortunate enough to become French Champion in the 8×50 m freediving sprint, a significant milestone in my sporting career.
I am delighted to be joining the Air-Fins team. The vision, expertise and project led by Fred and his team bring real added value to these high-quality French-made fins. It is a pleasure to represent a brand that shares the same high standards of performance, quality and passion for the ocean.
Aymeric
I’ve been spearfishing since I was a teenager. It’s a passion my father passed on to me, and one that has never left me. Now a member of the CSN in Nantes, I’m also involved in fin swimming competitions, a sport that nurtures my connection to the sea and my desire to push my limits.
I’m proud to be part of the Air-Fins team because of their expertise in developing high-performance fins.
Philippe
I joined a diving club at the age of 15. Very quickly, I moved on to competitive spearfishing at BPL level. At the same time, I played underwater hockey, making it into the French national team.
For the past eight years, I’ve been competing in open-water swimming, taking part in BPL championships and the French championships.
After many years of competing in these three disciplines, I’ve learnt that physical fitness isn’t everything. You also need top-quality equipment to perform well.
With the AIR-FINS team, I’ve found people who listen to my feedback on the different fins I’ve tried, offering high-quality, locally manufactured products.
Yohan
I’ve been spearfishing for about twenty years, from Finistère to Vendée coast. Since 2007, I’ve also been lucky enough to work as a sales assistant specialising in diving, spearfishing and freediving, which allows me to live out my passion.
In 2025, I decided to join a freediving club to further develop my skills and explore new sensations in the water.
What immediately appealed to me about AIR-FINS was the concept: French manufacturing combined with the use of recycled technical materials to create a high-range product.
I was immediately impressed by the fins’ performance. Thanks to my job, I have the opportunity to try out many models on the market, and I can say that AIR-FINS clearly ranks among the very best in terms of performance and feel.
Nico
I started out as a scuba diving instructor, until a decompression accident brought everything to a halt. With COVID and the lockdown, I found myself out of work. To make a living, I returned to the sea in a different way: spearfishing.
I soon realised the limitations of practising on my own. I then got in touch with Franck Daoubens and Christian Vogler, who became my mentors and then my friends. Thanks to them, I trained, improved my skills and became an AIDA freediving instructor.
After an operation to correct a heart condition that had caused my accident, I was able to start afresh on a sound footing. Together with Moya, my companion, we set up Beneath the Waves Freediving Lanzarote.
Today, I work with partners who share my values, such as AIR-FINS. Their high standards regarding the quality and performance of their equipment align perfectly with my vision: to offer the very best, without compromise, to every freediver.
