Buddhasummer, what did you end up thinking of the Accels? Thinking of getting a pair because of the small size/weight, but curious about:
1. How well they do in current with standard scissor kicking?
2. How manueverable they are for frog/helicopter/back kicking (I do a lot of photography, so mainly use these styles)
3. Are they positively buoyant? Do your feet end up floaty?
4. Can they be worn without boots? (just neoprene socks?)
If anyone has other recommendations for light/small/wearable without boots but still manueverable (in the jet fin sense) I'd love to hear them.
Scissor kick I cannot say as I predominantly frog kick, which they do well.
I found them to be very maneuverable.
Just slightly positive.
They would be very uncomfortable without boots.
I replaced the the silicone strap with some Seawing Nova bungee straps, as they are bungee and not metal springs they did not make a big difference to overall weight.
They are my new go yo travel fin.
If you want a small light travel fin that can be worn without boots look at the Aqualung Hotshot.
