have you tried the scubapro go fins? heard they come in pink and perform well.
 
Love my AquaLung Phazers in pink and white! Easy to see and great propulsion
 
What kind of fin techniques are you currently using? I think you said you were considering intro to tech classes, which might change your preference somewhat.

I do 90% frog kicks, a few back kicks and heli turns, and the occasional flutter if I need burst speed or a tiny modified flutter/frog if space is limited. Mostly it's kick and glide. For this use, short stiff blades like the D6 or the Jetfins are great as it gives you a lot of power and control, where small corrections give instant feedback, and you glide far with each kick. If you use them for a constant straight leg flutter, they will be very heavy/tiring to use.
I've actually started my DMT 😁 I looked into Intro to tech but none of the schools here was actually doing the intro, just the Tech 40-Tech 65 etc. so I've decided to start the course and look into tech later, as it's quite expensive!

I do the same as you! But I did like the PSI fins. I think some of the instructors here has the Jetfins so I might ask her to try hers and see how I like them!
 
Another vote for Mares Quattros as they are wonderful fins. They come in several colors. No pink but they have a bunch of colors. Yellow, blue, black, white, lime flame and aqua/white. I have them in white.
I'm sad because they would be a good fit but I don't like/want any of the other colours 🤣🥲😅
 
Hello!

I am looking to buy my first pair of fins.
I am now using my dive shops one, the Scuba Go Sport, and I don't particularly like them. Too short, too positive buoyant.
I've tried the PSI Sprinter from a friend, so much difference! I liked them and wanted to buy them buy to my dismay (! sarcasm) I found out that they discontinued the pink ones.
I really really want good fins but I really really want them pink.
Any suggestions on some fins that have a similar performance to the PSI?
My wife and I have the Scuba Pro Go Sport fins, mine in white and her's in yellow. We have never had a buoyancy problem with them. We have used them in drift dives, ocean surges, and fresh water. We have had good results with them. At first, we were not happy with them but now find them excellent fins.

I know some use the Aqualung Storms for travel. Others use the Phazers. Are you looking for travel size or does it matter?

If you’re looking to get into tech I would definitely recommend the Deep6 Eddys mentioned earlier.
 
I have to ask, why pink fins?
How often do you turn around and look at your fins?
Easy to find in a pile of fins on a dive boat, No guy will steal them , [I am not so sure now],?
OK, your choice, "I get it" [what am I saying? I have failed to "get it' and understand women in 74 years, why try to now]. :giggle:
Such fun.
