Nice! I wonder how it will perform when you're doing the frog kick (you know, just hovering there)? They're all doing modified platter (is my spelling correct?) kick.

Nice! I wonder how it will perform when you're doing the frog kick (you know, just hovering there)? They're all doing modified flutter kick. Very good observation Gi! I'm thinking the same thing. Havent tried them, but I assume that when frog-kicking, you will be pushing back with the rounded underside of the fins, which would present less resistance to the water and therefore less power. I believe Force Fins can be fast and efficient but only when using a flutter kick. Maybe that's why they are used by military divers, who don't hover around the reef looking for pretty fishes, but only need to go from Point A to Point B quickly, accomplish their tasks, then go back. But again I have not tried them, so I could be wrong. Would like to try them sometime.  |
