Go to your local Dive shop and see if they have any recommendations and ones you can try out.

Try ALOT of different fins. I tryed at least 10 before I found what I liked. Alot of it depends on if you have enough leg to use them. Stiff fins take more leg then split fins. Longer fins take more then short fins. I settled on cressi frogs and have used them for almost 20 years now. I also use spring straps on both sets of frogs.

Hollis F1 bat fins are top of the line - I have a mint set size XXL for sale if interested $95. Thanks and good luck!

I have a set of Force Fin Pros I bought off of eBay. I don’t think I will replace them unless I hit the lottery. Then, I will get the Flying Force Fin - new.
