    Force Fins on Halloween

    Is anyone wearing their favorite Force Fins when they go trick or treating. You don't have to wear them on your feet (though that would be fun to watch), but you could, you know dress up like a scuba diver and wear them on you side. Let me know if your brave enough. Me, I'm 53, I don't trick...

    Scratches on my Hockey Fins

    I made a few dives catching crab in the Puget Sound at Mukilteo, Washington and then snorkeling in a rocky area of the Stilliguamish river and oh what fun! But, boy did it do a number on my beautiful Hockey Fins. Scratches everywhere. Now I know this doesn't hurt performance and these fins...

    confusion on Ebay

    Some poor chap on Ebay is selling his Scubapro Jetfins and calling them Force Fin Pro's. I sent him a polite note correcting his mistake. Of course he might get bigger bids that way. :D

    Extra Force on Ebay

    Someone on Ebay is having an auction on an used pair of Extra Force in the original material, but advertising them as Tan Delta. I corrected him via email and he replied: "A friend molded these a few years ago. He would make all colors for us and always uses the best materials." I would...

    Outbid on Ebay

    :shocked2:In the last hour of an auction I'd been watching on a pair of FF Excellerators, I finally bid $213 and it held till the last 2 minutes, then several quick bids from others coming close to my max bid of $350, so I rapidly changed my max bid to $400 with a couple of auto bids to that...

    It's a Girl!

    My baby daughter, Ellie was born on the Thursday. 7 pounds and 11 ounces of pure cuteness. Red headed, and fiesty, sure to be a good diver one day. Doubt there's a Force Fin to fit her yet. She may have to settle for one of those cute FF bibs or keychains.

    two sets of fins---twice the fun

    Got my Adjustable FF (for diving) on the 7th and have been trying them out in the pool. I'll go for a few laps, then switch to my Pro's. I'd be hard pressed to tell you a favorite. I like them both for different reasons. With the Pro's I can feel the power and so easy to get on and off. With...

    Tried 'em in the Base pool today

    Rec'd my FF pro XXXL on the 17th and my comfort inserts yesterday. Couldn't wait for my sister-in-law (Dive master, AI, and my dive buddy). So I went to the pool on the Navy Base nearest me. Yee Haw! Tried my old fins first: Mares Plana Avanti Quattros. Instant ankle and foot pain from planar...

    Aging body, New FF pro's XXXL

    Hi Ya'll, Just ordered a FF pro XXXL for a good price and then read the posts from Sibermike and replies from Bob and Blair then wondered if I got my size right. I wear size 13 shoe and my dive boots have thick soles, so I think I have it right and can always buy the inserts. Does this...

    New Diver Again!

    1st time diving was in November of 1977 in a lake in Arkansas in my swimshorts, boy was it cold. About 10 of us were being certified in a college class and most of us being students couldn't afford wetsuits (and where would you buy one in Arkansas in the '70's?) A few months later I joined the...
