Subject: Split fins
Date: Sat, 4 Aug 2001 22:33:12 +0800
Hi guys,

On the subjects of drag force and high current diving,
I thought I'll ask you guys your opinions about the latest split fins.

The split fins seem to be the new revelation in scuba diving now
with many manufacturers currently embracing the "nature wings" technology.
When the first one appeared on the market, the Apollo Biofins, I tried it
but found it too
flimsy and soft compared to the trusty SP jets. With the split, I also feel
these fins have the potential for entanglement.
But there are many divers, tech divers included, that seemed to swear by it.
Has anybody else tried using the rest of these "nature wings"? What are your
comments?
The dive mags are raving about these as well but it's better to hear from
the real players here.

Rgds,
Davy
