My buddy uses them & he seems very happy w/ them. They are similar to the Hotspot fins, but not as wide. But they are softer than the other float tube fins w/ harder plastic or rubber. Those gave me leg cramps.

I think you'll be happy w/ those fins you listed. I know Bass Pro Shops carries them & the new BPS is opening this month. You may want to wait & see if they have a special grand opening sale & get your fins then. If not, get the Hotspot fins, you'll be very happy!

Jaun,

I picked those fins up at play it again sports....they were used US dive fins.

Here is the website...but they don't list dive equipment...they have it in store.

I will look at the store by me and if they have them I will let you know....I might be able to pick them up for you.

I think I paid like $20 for them!!!!

I will let you know.

i bought some body glove fins at sporst authority. THey sucked. Returned them the next day. A little too stiff and hurt the ankles. Perhaps you'll have better luck than I did.

I have some creek companies, and haven't had any problems other that the feeling of them sliding off my feet all the time, but they never do. They are worth it. You get pretty good distance per kick.

Those are the fins I have and I have no complaints about them. I didn't get the leg cramps like I did using other tube fins and they've got good propulsion.

Hey cappo,

Those fins are U.S. Divers and you can get them new for about $30. I have seen them at Walmart for about $20 and at bass pro also for about $30...
