    I went through 5 pair of fins when I started....
    Non of them felt/fit right and all of them hurt my feet or ankles after a short session....

    I finally got some Hot Spot Fins...
    Damn, like night and day.. !!!
    No more pain, fast, no weight (they float)..
    I have done several 16 hr sessions at NPH (current and wind) and no problems at all..

    I love them and will never use any others!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The owner maker of these fins is a float tuber and member here (Fat Albert)....
    Man did he make a winner!!!!!!!!

    I got a pair of diving fins from a DIVING/SCUBA store in Irvine. They were about $70...I think they are just as good as hot spots if not better...I think they are a little longer, and they float.
