I own a pair of Genesis Aquaflex fins.
Looking for something a little lighter to dive with. While doing some DM work, one of the other guys let me try his Tusa X-pert zooms, and the difference in air consumption was pretty noticeable.
So I've decided to get some new fins. Problem is, I understand splits aren't great from a maneuverability standpoint, which is obviously a concern doing photography and wanting to be able to go backwards/hold ground, etc.
So what are people's thoughts? I'm looking at the TUSA X-pert zooms, and also at the new Cressi-Sub Rondines (if you've seen a dive mag. in the last 3 months, you know the fins I speak of).
Will I be alright with the splits, or do I need to stick with a more conventional paddle style fin?
Thanks,
