Here are some pictures:
Notice in the first picture the man in the background as he gazes at me fins!
All three pictures are of the briefing I was giving one of my sons about proper line use to retrieve the stuff from the harbor.
The last picture also has another son bringing a rope.
I am using a brand new drysuit with stocking feet (it also has rock boots). I like using the Force Fins w/o the boots because they are so comfortable!!
Three generations of Meistrell's, off the coast of California. Sporting their Force Fins and retro wetsuits. Look out for the underwater video to be on ForceFin2020 this month. Body Glove and Force Fin go back to the beginning. This was sent to Bob from Billy Meistell Jr.
Great to see the family enjoying the Ocean above and below the water! Jenna good luck on your next adventure, we are very proud of the steps you are taking to help better understand the oceans.! - and how cool to be a part of a shark tagging expedition!! You Rock!
We look forward to hearing about your trip on your return!!! Thanks again Bob, Billy Jr and Jenna.
Speaking of Shark Tagging. Tomorrow I will be down at the Aquarium of the Pacific meeting with and listening to Jeffery Gallant talk about his work studying and tagging the Greenland Shark! Jeffery has been a long time Force Fin user and supporter and it is always a pleasure to spend time with him. If you are in the area and can make I am sure you will be educated and fascinated
Nick Caloyianis uses his Tan Delta Excellerating Force Fin while documenting the story of the Basking Shark. Nick uses many different models of Force Fins for his work, but it was the Excellerating Force he chose to keep up with the Basking Shark while working long hours in the water..

I have been using mine since 1997 and had only seen 3 other pairs, 2 in Curacao 5 or 6 years ago and then one pair in Bonare last year.
We just got back from 2 weks in the Maldives on the MV Orion and there were 3 sets besides mine on the boat. We also crossed paths with a boat of italian divers all wearing yellow fins of one sort or another and 2 of them were wearing yellow Force Fins
Jimorus, How cool, seems like they are catching on more with the Public. Just shipped another large order to the Australian Special Forces which I have done for the past 20 years. You see, a lot of Force Fin customers are never meant to be seen. Looking forward to talking with Greg Holt, of ScubaRadio later in the Day. 1:00 pst.ScubaRadio-The worlds first radio show devoted to diving with Greg The Divemaster. Powered by ClickToBoat.Com. Best, Bob
I assume the Australian Special Forces use Smoked Black??
But, do they also have silver + gold sparkles on their fins
