Best fins to fit DUI Torbo Soles

[DiverTimOH]

Got a new DUI dry suit with turbo soles earlier this Summer. The twin jets that fit great over a wet suit boot are way too small for the turbo sole. Have used them, but ouch! Is there a fin that best accommodates the wider flatter bottom of the turbo sole compared than the more natural shape of a wet suit boot, or do I just need to get a larger twin jet? Really wishing I'd have gotten rock boots at this point. Seems like its a matter of time before the fin strap causes the sole to delaminate.

What size Turbo Soles? I have either men's ML or L(can't remember which) and the Hollis F1s fit well.

Hollis F-1's, HOG Tech Fins, Jets, etc. What you really need to do is try some on and the ones that fit the best are the ones for you. I went through your issues. I have three different styles of wet suit boots and two drysuits. One with attached boots and one with Rock boots. I own five sets of fins I use depending on the dive, conditions, and suit/boots I'm using.

I went from a pair of L Power Fins with a wets suit booty to an XL Power Fin, XL Jet Fin (standard), and XL POSIDEN/UTD/HOG/ fin with the Turbo Soles and heavy wool socks......soooo, I guess I would recommend trying on (in a store) a one-size-larger fin. With socks on.

I have seen a myriad of fins work with Turbo's.....Turtle's, F1's, Jets, etc. Every diver has their own preference for fit. Your best bet is to try on a few(and dive them if you can borrow) and see what's the best for you. Most divers have an arsenal of fins for different types of diving and configurations....I know I do!

True enough. Fins are like regs (and bpw's, sidemount rigs, reels, lights, and knives) you can never have too many.
