I second the millenium comps. Much stiffer than the standards.

Re: Fin Survey

I love my old Cressi rondine gara they last me for 12 years and still miss them, they were very comfortable, didn’t know and throw them away, the blades were still in great shape, maybe they fit on another foot pockets, I remember when I got them I was the first one in this area to have long fins and people make fun of me until I beat them to crap diving down easy…LOL.

Now I have the Riffe and like them they are comfortable but some fingers still get some rash, I hope I can try some composite Apnea soon .

If I snap a blade. That is what I will order. I saw the Comps for sale, but was not sure how stiff they were. So I chose the standard instead. Just to be safe.

Re: Fin Survey

cressi gara 3000LDs. good fins for the price. i paid $108. foot pockets are great and the blades are pretty damn tough. I do swim pretty far because im a shore diver and my feet/ legs dont cramp or get sore. If i had more cash i was looking at the omer milleniums or esclapez blacks.

Re: Fin Survey

I've used Cressi, Picasso and Omer but recently got a pair of Ray Powell DiveR blades from Australia. They are custom made and fit a variety of foot pockets - I'm using the Imersion pockets, very comfortable - and are quite a bit longer than most others on the market. They have improved my dive time a lot, I get down to 25 - 30m much faster than I did with the Picassos...

Re: Fin Survey

I have a pair of Riffe pez fuerte blades that are new but one blade has a small chip at the tip of one blade . This fin is the Omer comp. but was made blue in color for Riffe. $25.00 and I will ship them USPS in the USA. Note: these are blades only.

Re: Fin Survey

I think Dennis (20 Fathoms) is getting the new Immersion footpockets for his Matrix and Edge blades. They look just like my old Escaplez footpockets that were stolen 2 years ago right next to him.

Same here! I have gotten some complaints about people getting kicked in the head!
