Best cheap open-heel fin?

[nohappy]

Hi guys,

I saw similar discussion here that was posted on 2008. I just wonder if there is any update nowadays? What is your best cheap open-heel fin?

Pretty much a jet fin...or one of the many clones

Why not buy top quality, barely used at a huge discount from the many scuba dropouts and upgraders on the used market?

59 dollars currently@ Scuba-Choice

Pretty much my favorite and most cheapest set of fins.
I also own:

Jets
XS Power fins
HOLLIS F1 Bat fins
Mares avanti quatros

For comparison.

Edit: You can buy these now @ Scuba-choice.

In comparison, my accelerators to were $20 Cad and came with neoprene boots.
Used for ow classes only.
My Jets, well that was a package deal that I will come out ahead on with free fins, a lp 72 and a SP reg. set.

What are these "accelerators" you speak of?

What are "accelerators?"

By seaQuest
I like then for travel.
They are light, neutral and almost exactly the same footprint as the Jets.

Apropos of what?
