the seemingly random inclusion of the golden mean as
one of the concepts. I got this shape from looking at oar blade designs. See: http://www.concept2.com/products/oars/oartesting2.asp Also it's easy to test using cardboard. A 3x5 rectangle just feels like the best air scoop - it catches the most air. I'd think that you'd want to develop your idea to work in water before you tried the thinner and vastly more difficult fluid of air. I think a ray-shaped diving suit, made of sealed foam and with knife-like but really controlable edges would move really well.
