Not very far...

I am a beginner diver who got lucky to get a second hand pair of Force Fins from my regular buddy for free (that I may have to give away if the boots of my future dry suit won't fit in them :depressed:).

Here is a couple of places I went with my Force Fins:

Underwater swing at Redondo Beach, Des Moines (WA)

My first boat dive somewhere between Whidbey and Camano Islands

(I hope it works...Somebody should make scubaboard photo gallery more user friendly)

Cheers
 
Don't get confused. There will be no giving away of the Force Fins.

Well I can always write a letter to Santa!:wink:

(Jeez everytime I try to upload an image here it takes me forever! You are lucky that I kept persevering with it without giving up in frustration!)

Soakedlontra,
Fantastic photos! Way to use the local water. Great start to great thread! Thanks for posting.
 
Here's me, my Force Fins and a friendly (I hope) baracuda just off of Little Cayman

That's the best you can hope for! The barracuda is tolerating you and your force fins to a point that it is letting you take a picture!

The visibility was less than desirable, but any diving is ......... well you know the rest.

When I asked Jahmin and Jordan why they choose Force Fins Tan Delta

they told me "Well they are the best fins out there and they are perfect for the work we do documenting surfing and natural history in the tropics. Great for travel and they have the power we need"

Next time when the visibility is better we will show some pictures from underwater.

On my move to Florida I only brought my Tan Delta's, Flying Force and the SD-1 Military.
I might have to get more!
