Hello, everyone
I just recently did my OW certs in the Florida springs and loved every minute of it. I have the Mares Quattro Plus, which are fine. Exactly the quality I expected. However, I'm looking more at jet fins. Also hoping maybe they will make me more feet heavy. With such a big head, you'd think it'd be a bobber, but I do find myself more head heavy. Would this help to balance that out? And would they be better for working on maneuverability and alternate kicking styles? I have a decent grasp on frog kicks (even without thrusting my legs). Not so much on reverse kicks. I'm just curious as to what advantages there may be there vs conventional fins. I definitely need to master tight turns without using my hands. I don't plan to never use my Mares again, but maybe just another option for different types of diving.
