I have not used them yet, but I did try them on.
I ordered the medium/large size, both LD and HD.
Made in China - if you were wondering.
Spring strap that comes with it is too small for me. I wear a size 11 Wide in USA men's sizes. I tried them with the Posiedon One Shoe (Size 12 the 11 is too narrow), Mares DS 5mm, and Sea Soft Stealth.
I did like the foot pocket. Once I removed the spring strap and put a XS Scuba Rubber strap and Aqua Lung wire buckles on them, the fit was quite good. Snug like the OMS Slipstream, but my foot went all the way to the end of the foot pocket without crushing my toes. It was a bit tight over the instep in the Sea Soft Stealths.
LD version floats in the swimming pool, note this was with the spring straps replaced with rubber ones.
HD version is about 0.340 kilograms negative for the HD pair with spring straps. However, this is dubious because people were swimming when I did the test.
My finning technique sucks, so I cannot comment much on that. The LD version is stiffer than a XXL Turtle fin, while the HD version might approach the OMS Slipsteam... I would need to test it properly.
I think the foot pocket and the fact I am not forced to use spring straps are my reasons for getting these fins.
Packaging is nice, think reusable grocery bag, unfortunately one of my bags came ripped up a bit already.
I kind of wish tech fins came without straps, so I could buy the ones that best fit me.
