    Spring straps for Jet Fins

    So I went in to my LDS to buy some springs for my beloved Jets.

    1. They weren't in stock
    2. They cost £80 (~$130) to order. This is more expensive than the fins themselves and I just can't accept that.

    Anyone got any tips or thoughts on how or where to get springs for original Jets at a reasonable price? I've found some products but would like a thumbs up prior to making a commitment e.g. http://www.divesports.com/-p/is-rb4611.htm

    TIA,
    J

    Randy has them as cheap as I've ever seen. Dunno if shipping over seas is a problem or not:

    Piranha Dive Manufacturing

    Just search "spring straps"

    And there I was thinking we'd never see eye to eye on anything

    Thanks for the tip, I'll check them out and hopefully get a result.

    You must be looking forward to Copenhagen no?

    I can't even buy the raw materials to make a set as cheap as Randy is selling them.
