I would love to know any insight about it's pro & cons using it for diving with medium to strong currents conditions in tropical water.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.
 
Excite Pro is a bit narrower, but longer fin, slightly larger thrust area, a bit more rigid blade though. Same or very similar weight and buoyancy. For me it is better in current, but requires stronger muscles. Never had any issues with cramping or anything negative. I like EP over Q+. I know this may sound subjective, but I have more control with EP, both frog kick and flutter. And it's much easier to turn, slow down or even back fin with EP's. EP is a bit better for snorkeling too...
The only con I can come up with is that the bungee strap is not adjustable, but it rarely is.
