Description
BREIER V3 underwater hockey fins
Breier’s V3 generation (2026) uses a revised composite structure and new fabrics to balance propulsion efficiency with torsional resistance for underwater hockey and underwater rugby.
At the same material and hardness index, Breier reports V3 torsional resistance at the V1 level, while retaining higher efficiency than V1. V3 is offered at the same tariffs as V2.
Configure your blade material, footpocket, size, V3 hardness and optional accessories in the selector above. Accessories and personalisation are priced separately.
Important: choose your V3 hardness
At the same hardness index, V3 is stiffer than V2. Breier recommends going down one grade for a similar feeling of flexibility.
| Your V2 index | Recommended V3 index |
|---|---|
| 6 | 5 |
| 5 | 4 |
| 4 | 3 |
| 3 | 2 |
| 2 | 1 |
If you used the softest V2 index (1), contact us before ordering: that flexibility has no direct equivalent in this V3 guide. At the same index, C8 is slightly stiffer than E-glass, S-glass and C5, so seek advice if you are also changing material.
450 or 500 mm: choose for your game
- 450 mm: quicker acceleration and greater explosiveness over the first metres.
- 500 mm: higher top speed over a sustained action.
The listed configuration is 500 mm. For a 450 mm version, confirm the exact configuration and price with us before ordering.
Four composite materials
| Material | Breier’s performance comparison |
|---|---|
| E-glass (EG) | 20–30% higher efficiency than plastic or rubber fins. |
| S-glass (SG) | 6–7% higher efficiency than E-glass; the highest torsional resistance in the range. |
| Carbon C5 | 15% higher efficiency than S-glass. |
| Carbon C8 | 6–7% higher efficiency than C5; slightly stiffer at the same index. |
These are the manufacturer’s relative comparisons; they compare different reference materials and should not be added together.
Manufacturer’s relative benchmark
| Generation | Year | Efficiency index | Torsional resistance index |
|---|---|---|---|
| V1 | 2007 | 100 | 100 |
| V2 | 2020 | 105 | 95 |
| V3 | 2026 | 103 | 100 |
Comparison at identical material and hardness index, with V1 as the baseline. V3 improves torsional resistance over V2; its quoted efficiency index is 103 versus 105 for V2.
Footpockets and fitting
V3 retains several footpocket choices, a full size range and made-to-measure customisation.
- Select your footpocket and its matching size, or the made-to-measure option.
- For custom fitting, measure both feet separately using the units requested in the fields. Record length and circumference, and tell us if you play in socks or booties.
- Use the V3 hardness guide above; your usual V2 index does not feel the same in V3.
- Review the blade material, footpocket, measurements, hardness, optional extras and total before adding to your basket.
Ask for current fitting instructions and production lead time before placing a made-to-measure order.
