Scanning my GrandFather Irving Eckoff past and found I am related to Pocahontas and on my GrandMothers side it was Ann Biddle married to Major General James Wilkinson. Sounds all American.

I think Force Fin was accepted overseas right off the bat. They did not have the FAKE US DIVE PRESS tearing down who we were. In Europe they have laws about false reviews and understand diving needs due to harsh conditions. We still ship more over seas than here in America. Kind of intersting to say the least. Why Force Fins Are Made In U.S.A. – Force Fin

I never read any “fake press news” about Force Fins. What do you mean?

It's been years since we settled up in Federal Court with a Diving Publisher. I could go on and on about Fake Dive Press, but they now leave us alone. When is the last time you have seen Force Fins in a USA publication? We are left out, and that is ok with us.. yet sell Force Fins mostly to the Military and growing again, so we are Happy. Made in America. Folks on Scuba Board are cool, so will keep posting cool stuff.

To be honest, long time since I saw ANY fins in any USA publication. Heck, I don’t even know how I found out about FFs. All I know is that I ended up with five pairs!

our dive masks. Right ?
 
Had a pair of force fins when they fist arrived in Australia [given to me to try] ,feels like another life time ago, I lent them to diver to try, never to be seen again, him or the fins.
Only tried them twice.

I was teaching scuba at the Clovelly dive shop in Sydney at the time, the owner at the time had a few and gave them to the two Instructors [of which I was one] which I promptly lost .
