No cramps, nice smooth flow in the kick , plenty of power when I kick the legs into overdrive there a nice conversation starter too. If you have wide feet like me go up to a larger size than the size chart recommends. I where 10 1/2 5e extra large fit fine with a neoprene sock.

Bought these before a Caribbean cruise where I'd be snorkeling every day. Worked perfectly. Very fast fin. I won't say they're the fastest, but they're up there. The way they bend 45 degrees and stay flat during the downstroke gives them a ton more thrust on the downstroke. It's unnoticeable. I never felt them flopping about or even thought about it until we watched our Go-pro footage and saw them working. If I dive down and switch to a longer strke with my legs they got even faster. At about 50% of my effort level, they move along much faster than my other fins. At 100% effort, they're slightly faster. So most of the time, I'm using a lot less effort to swim than others. Much faster than normal fins at light effort. At the end of each excursion, my legs felt like they could go another hour of swimming easy. Much less energy used up than my other fins. Size XL fits medium width size 13 feet perfectly.I wore no socks and they were comfortable for 1 hour swims. No pain on my failing knees, no muscle cramps either. They weigh less as well. A real fin that's as light as those pathetic cheapy fins and travel fins some people use. I carried these around on my back every day. I didn't have time to drop off my gear after excursions, just grabbed lunch back on the ship and then went swimming some more on the beach. So any shopping or eating I did during the day, I had these in my back pack and it wasn't a problem. Don't put them on, on the beach or boat. Jump in to the water and put them on while floating. Walking around on them in shallow water, or on a boat is a pain. If you bump a rock or something they fold under and trip you up. It's easier for big guys like me to fin up while floating weightless anyways. If you like to walk on fins in shallow water, skip the full foot ones and get the open heel version and some 5mm booties. If you do alot of beach entries the open heel version is better, easier on and off and no bare foot walking. Most of my snorkel tours were boat based. The beach based ones I just swam out to 4'+ deep water and then put them on. For a rocky beach like the Champagne Reef snorkel area in Dominica, 5mm booties and the open heel versions would be preferable. These fins have been improved since the 1st batch. New fins have slots on the bottom of the hinge, and a notch, not slots on the top of the hinge. So no more breakage. I expect these to last a long time. There blade is a bit stiffer with an insert and I think they improved the ribs a little as well. Scuba pro hit a home run with these. Not cheap, but nothing done right is.

I ended up going through XL, then M, to settle on the proper L size. Finding size charts for this item is difficult. I will try to summarize the fit chart here showing fin size and matching US sizes for an average width foot: Small: men 6-7; women 7-8 Med: men 8-9; women 9-10 Large: men 10-11; women 11-12 XL: men 12-13; women 13
