Hello,
I am 6', 192 lbs. I have a strong upper body but fairly thin legs and am athletic. I'm looking at the Mare fins, specifically something efficient for cruising but also some power when necessary. Do you think the quattros are too much for me? Are there more than one type of quattro. Looking for open foot type.
Suggestions? Oh, almost forgot, I'm 48 if that matters.:11:

Thanks,
Ben
 
I'm 45, and my knees are iffy. I use the Quattros, and I love them.
 
Hi Ben, if you are looking for power, want to really feel power and have strong legs, then the Quattro Excels are THE fin for you. The Whale Tail design on the foot pocket allows for more power to be channeled down through the blade of the fin, and the Channel Thrust technology of the Mares fins can not be beat!

There are two different quattro and the quattro excel, my wife use the quattro excel. She has a strong kick an it works well for her.
