I bought a set on the Black Friday sale and had a chance to try them recently on vacation. They are pretty light and pack well. They are comfortable and very easy to don/doff with the handle on the spring straps. They seem to have good power and work well for all of the kicks, especially the back kick.

I did some shore diving, so if I have one complaint, it would be that the material is a bit soft and chunks easy on rocks. Other than that, they are excellent.
 
I wear a size 11 Poseidon one shoe (3mm) and I'm a size 10.5. What size would you recommend for me, Large I suspect?
I am also interested in a negative version.

When will a Large in white be next available in stiff and also one in soft?
 
@DeepSeaPirate I think you will be an XL. I wear a size 9 Poseidon and my L pair fits me perfectly.
 
First day of CCR training. 1 instructor, 2 students, 3 sets of Deep6 Eddy fins.

I claim full responsibility! :D :wink:

CCRs are notorious for being butt heavy - at least, from what I've read. I did a demo dive on a Dive Rite O2ptima a couple of years ago and they put 12 # of lead on the top of the unit and I still had to scull like made to keep my feet up and stay in horizontal trim. The Eddy fins seem perfect for diving a CCR as they are neutrally buoyant (and excellent for technical finning techniques). It was my first time in the water with my new-to-me rEvo CCR. Within 30 seconds of dropping to the bottom (with no weight on me or the rEvo), I was able to be flat in the water, with my fins still. I love these fins!

Any word lately about a heavier set of Eddy fins? Last I looked, y'all were talking about using another compound for the heavy set.
 
I would LOVE a pair of XL and XXL in white... Pretty please?!
