Great to read such a detailed review from Guy!
As a diver with instructor level skills, his opinions are extremely valid.
I have always been a fan of Cressi fins, including the Master Frog....
I think my review of the Excellerating Force fins was "skewed" with the edge to the FF's because of individual differences between divers....In my case, having been a competitive cyclist for so long, I was able to use a kick shape with a power development for the Excellerators, that allowed me to get more out of them than I could with traditional scuba fins. My use of them, may well be so esoteric, as to be irrelevant to many divers.
The most important issue, was that Guy was able to try these himself, and find out what was best for him---he did not have to take a print rag's word, or that of a dive store, or mine, or anyone else's
Guy, thanks for taking me up on the Demo!
I hope many more SB members will!
