That sounds great. We are building a new version for distribution. We will have to wait until they are in production.Send a pair and let's see if they survive a kelp crawl in Monterey.

This has been a concern of mine from day one. So far entanglement has been a fairly minor issue. I do hope to get these out in places such as kelp beds to see how they fare.This is a good point. Is there greater potential for entanglement with the vanes. Also, if the kelp (or other entangling material) gets caught up in the vanes, can they be torn out as the diver is working to get untangled?
I think that was my point. This seems like an odd crowd to pitch, when there are much bigger markets with divers much more willing to pick up the latest fad.You represent a very small portion of the market.
I'm not really in charge of what freshly minted divers do. But I've seen brand new divers in Jet Fins—these were not especially coordinated people—and they didn't have any problems. Why would they?Also, believe me when I say, you don't want the mass of freshly minted divers wearing jet fins if you have to be around them.
Put them in non-silting fins, then let them decide if they want to pursue more "technical" activities.
This crowd is diverse, though the "tech" divers may be somewhat more vocal. This is probably the best place to target divers specifically.I think that was my point. This seems like an odd crowd to pitch, when there are much bigger markets with divers much more willing to pick up the latest fad.

The spinoff is the ablility to go faster since it is using less energy.
Science doesn't prove (except math), but have you ever seen a fin manufacturer do science to support the claims of the fin?Can you provide real proof of this? I mean scientific proof not another video in a pool.
It kind of funny to ask that from a startup. I haven’t seen any proof on fins from any manufacturer. In any case, when regulator test show quantitative data for a machine those tests get bashed here. It appears no test whatsoever can appease the sb crowd. Give the man some credit for reaching out and trying to get fins onto people’s feet for trying.Can you provide real proof of this?
