hey![]()
well, I have several types of fins: Mares Quaro's, Mares Volo, Vollo Power and XS Turtle fins.
i have dived splits, like the Vollo's and vollo powers, if you kick with force, they wont do much, and we, being used to get speed for our efforts, feel like we rent getting anywhere, with Quatro's and Turtle fins on the other hand, i feel i get much much more thrust andstability with.
in a pool, calm or currentless waters or snorkling, the splits and Vollo's are great fo me, dont even feel them on.... BUT..... when loaded up with tanks, teaching, fighting currents, i cant seem to get anywhere with them, same goes for the Scubapro Twinjets, didnt take with'em, god knows i tried![]()
so, i prefer the bladed fins.
On the other hand, the head Diving officer at my place of work, has been a diving instructor and in dive business for over 35 years swears by them and wont even touch a bladed fin, he dives deco dives, MEG CCR dives with them and they are th best thing that has ever happend with fin tech in his eyes, so, go figure lol
to each his own in the end, right?
ove my Quatro's and Turtles![]()
