OK.... the BLACK foot pocket looks pretty good my for my high-instep foot. Any plans for a negatively buoyant version?

yes actually, the specific gravity of the current material is .9, we will have one with a specific gravity of material of 1.4-1.5. That will be a few months however

I specifically hate gravity.

Looks like I'm late to the party here but I do have some experience with the eddy as a jumbo dude with big wide arches.

I find that the pocket is deeper than the slipstream and f1... Not far from the jets.

This is pretty awesome as more power is transferred in the kick. The material is snappy as well, more than a jet fin or other big rubber fin like the f1.

I would say I get about 120-130% glide time in my frog kick cycle vs my f1's.

For me in my size 15 chucks that deep pocket also helps reduce fatigue and cramping on my arches.

Personally I'm not switching fins from the eddy if I can help it at this point.

Now I just need some in 2x so I can wear larger rock boots for my magnum feet.

Also, for what it's worth the back kicking is solid. That snappy material and big side rail translate motion easy.

My issue is the fin pocket is too big. I have a Large fin, and have tried my largest booties (which are almost OK) but my favorite booties rattle around.

Any plans for producing a Medium-size fin for normal people rather than all the BigFoots out there?
