hamsiss:I want to know your fins that you really love?
You should first ask what fins people have used and then for their favorite pair.
Apart from crap rental fins, I've used Tusa x-pert zoom split fins and Scubapro XL Jetfins. I prefer the jets (better for alternative kicks), although the splits were better for the flutter kick.
edit: I've also used turtle fins with my drysuit (jets were too small with my trek boots), and they were fine (almost like jets), but I still preferred the jets just a little better... Could have just been the fit, the drysuit and other things, but they felt floppier.
Also the foot pockets on the jets are crap. If any manufacturer is reading this then please make the a new jet fin - same as old (heavy rubber compound) except with a modern foot pocket and in different colors for those who don't like black. I bet the demand would be there...
another vote for quattro's
I've tried Aeris Velocity, various US diver snorkel fins, SP Twin Jets and SP Jet fins ...
The Jets definitely are my favorites!

erm.......... Scubapro JetFins........
Rockets and super rockets for drysuit, wrecks, and travel. Blades for classes and open water at the lake.
Voit Viking A66, the Super Viking and of course, the worlds most powerful fin, the Voit UDT Super Duckfeet.

The world's most powerful fin is (was) the Farralon FarraFin. Wear one of these and you'll push anyone out of the water in a direct comparison, anytime. Hands down. (No, you can't get them probably, they're no longer made. Mine are not for sale). The braces make the difference, not the blade.
My second best-loved pair are Jetfins with spring straps. They're easier to use for Frog kick, reverse etc. since the FarraFin doesn't tilt sideways in the ankle.
That's for my diving and my physique. Your diving and your physique are likely to be different enough to make the above meaningless for you.
HTH anyway.

XL ScubaPro Jetfins... I prefer them over the split fins.
