Comments: I'll keep these fins because they are decent for the price, but first, the straps/buckles are TOTALLY useless if you have big feet at all (size 12 here). I threw the straps out and made my own...which cost about[$] from a fabric/craft store. Second, the design is VERY inefficient when you consider how you sit in a float tube. The vane of the fin should angle DOWN a bit so your thrust is pushing you to the rear instead of the way they currently work. They vane of the fin could also be about two inches longer so you can get more power from your kick. It is a no-brainer that float tube fin design should be quite different from scuba fins, but they do move you along...very slowly and inefficiently. At the sale price, they are tolerable, but come on folks...put a little thought into the design!
A whole lot of bang for the buck
