Fin Weight Study - comparing 2XL fins

[CPRC]

I collected this data to help me decide on new fins. I wanted to share with others who may be struggling with same thing. Saw many strings on SB but always questions about relative weights, heavier, lighter, etc. When first researching online I found manufacturer websites not always in sync with reality (a real wet test like I did), vs. their website spec sheets, vs. what people "say" their fins weigh, etc. I hope this helps. It's basic but it sure helped me as I dove, multiple times, most of these fins to narrow things down.

Couldn't open attachment. Will say that buoyancy may be more important than weight, especially when I've dropped one of my negative ones twice (luckily found them searching with one fin on).

I started trying to do this as a covid project on a larger scale (dimensions, weights, buoyancy) but I only have so many fins ... audience participation was underwhelming
