Upon arriving home today, I found a package near the front door.
The wife was very suspicious. She had been eyeballing the package since it had arrived. She thought it had food in it.
Unfortunately, I had to break the news to her that this was from a different Bob Evans.
Inside the package......
Was a small female child with a fake ID.
Kidding.
A tasteful Force Fin bag containing SD-1 Force Fins.
I put it in a line-up with my other fins.
Shorter, narrower, slimmer, and lighter than the Atomic by far. Much narrower than my OMS Slipstream. My slipstreams actually have issues hitting each other when doing flutter kicks.
Initial impressions:
1. I tried the fin on with my doc martin shoes. And then walked around the kitchen. Moving around on a boat wearing either of the other fins is a hazard.
2. It was soooo comfortable. Sizing Slipstreams is a black art that leaves one blistered and bloody. The adjustable nature of this fin is a killer feature.
3. It says "Bob Evans" on the fin. That made my wife hungry again.
4. This fin has a serious "Batman" persona going on. Not TV Batman or Burton Batman, more like a new Batman or lego Batman look.
Evidence:
These fins first hit the water in Grand Cayman in about 1.5 weeks. They will be going on 4-5 dives a day including rebreather and DPV. I'll provide a followup report.
I am also trying to get my dive buddy Mike to do the 29 pound dead lift free dive challenge in them since he is hitting a 15 foot pool this week.
Thanks Bob, Blair, and the gang.
