Question First pair of fins

[Tadpole Frogfish]

Go Sport are very nice, super nova is nicer and are very easy to take apart for travel, expensive but worth it.

If I were to purchase 1 pair, I'd go with supernovas for versatility but the locking mechanism might wear and tear after use is my concern.

I have, and started with, avanti quatros, but now dive the go sports exclusively, both in cold and warm water, both at home and abroad. Both are great all around fins, but the go sports pack a bit easier and I find they frog kick a bit easier. I have never had an issue in current with them, so I don't experience the limitation that some claim.

Here is a recent underwater 'test' of 20 fins from the YouTuber Divein:


Some interesting results.

They were also on my list. But from what I can find the quatro fins are much longer and won't fit in any of the bags I'm considering for travel and that's why I scrapped them.

I have a pair, and that's the only thing I don't like about them so far. They don't fit in a carry-on case.

Mine are white, and apparently that upsets certain fish. I had a triggerfish object to me, and especially the fins in Cozumel recently. It buzzed me a few times and really went after the fins. Go figure. Somebody told me there are places where you just don't wear white fins, but I don't know what that's all about or why. Some animals find them offensive, I guess.
