Rating: Great fins for underwater hockey
Reviewer: Robert E. E.,
the full-foot fin is a must for underwater hockey players and these came highly recommended. and they delivered! these are extremely comfy, snug-fitting fins (i have wide feet) with lots of stored potential energy (stiff). that is exactly what i was looking forfins built for speed. my uw hockey buddies thought they would make my legs tired in short order, but even after 1.5 hours of bottom time in a 12-foot pool playing at a fairly intense level) much more vigorously than i would if i was scuba diving) i didnt get a cramp or even feel fatigued. in fact, i felt they made me noticeably faster than i had swam previously. i suspect they would be appreciated by others who seek speed (free divers like spearfisherpersons), but they are rather long, so may not be the best choice for some dives (caves, wrecks) or divers (short legged, prone to cramping). although full-foot fins, my feet did not rub anywhere unlike my previous fins, which often caused blisters or abrasions.

Rating: great buy
Reviewer: Jarrod Vincent,
these fins are very good at propeling though the water and also have great control. They are very durable and light weight. I recommend for anyone who dives more than 5 times a year.

Rating: nice thrust
Reviewer: Sonny Morin, - View all my reviews
Used these fins on my last dive trip and was surprised by the power and thrust of these fins. I used to use split fins and thought they were good but these were better.

Typically, full foot fins are not designed for use with a bootie. In many cases people will experiment with a neoprene sock or a polyolefin hot sock with a full foot fin. Anything with any type of a sole to it, or made from neoprene any thicker won't work. The sole won't fit, and the neoprene will compress at depth causing the fin to get too loose and come off during use.
