Art,
I'm using the "turtle" fins. They have a larger foot pocket then the jet
fins, and are similar in design (rubber, simple, no buckles and
such)....They do have a REALLY big foot pocket, and some people find they're
kind of sloppy on their feet. But, I still use a stroke-suit (unfortunately)
with big boots, and it fits me great. If you call around I'm sure you can
find someone who has a pair for sale, I believe they're equivalent in price
to Jetfins.

Cheers,
Joel
