Force Fins

Post by Gringo Pescador » Tue Jun 23, 2009 12:16 pm

Got an "Atta Boy" reward at work - I am able to trade it in on Cabela's gift cards. :cheers:

I was thinking about picking up a pair of Force Fins.

Anybody have them or ever used them? Opinions?

Bump -

What, nobody has anything to say about them? I remember them being mentioned in a forum string last season, but cannot find it. They are expensive, but are they really worth it?

I've got a pair. Never used them for Float-tubing, but they were excellent for a year of heavy use, snorkelling and freediving in Thailand. Picked them up again recently and they were still in great shape after two years in storage. They are great for both dolphin- and scissor-kicks, with lots of maneuverability. A bit awkward for kicking right on the surface - no loss of speed - they just seem to grab the water better when fully submerged. Anyway, I think they're great and I had a lot of Thai divers asking where I got them.
There are two kinds of luck, and I got 'em both.
