I make them to fit you & for your fins/boots. I am offering a $5 discount to scubaboard members. Shown are my normal prices, SB members take $5 off.
I make them with 3 different types of mounts.
I cut them custom to fit you. The clear tubing over the springs can be either cut clear of the foot pocket, as they are in these pics, or full length to cover the spring from end to end, which ever you prefer. Most people have chosen full length.
In order to know which springs I have to use I need a measurement from you. For fins that use a post to attach the strap buckles, while wearing your boot & fin with the buckles & strap removed measure from the center of one post, around the heel, to the center of the other post. Be sure you get your boot all the way inside the fin for proper fit.
For Jet fin types, do the same only from the pin holding the buckle to the fin to the same point on the other side.
Again, take $5 off of these prices. If you are interested in having some made, just shoot me a PM & I'll be happy to fix you up.
Common length sets for Blades & similar mounts are $44 shipped domestically. If you use Rock boots or some such that require unusually long springs, the springs I have to buy cost a lot more. Those are $54 shipped domestically.
These are on my wife's Aqualung Blades. Most post type mounts such as Apollo & Mares will use these:
Common length sets for Jets are $39 shipped domestically. If you need long springs those are $49 shipped domestically.
Jet Fins and similar mounts, such as Rockets and Twin jets:
Common length sets for Atomics are $44 shipped domestically. If you need long springs, those are $54 shipped domestically.
Atomic fins use a unique post. I came up with this to attach spring straps to them without having to modify the fins. These came out nice, but are more labor intensive & can take me a bit longer to ship:
