Bill51:I would recommend you spend a couple hours in a pool at least before taking the Force Fins on a dive trip. I love mine, but they do take a little practice to learn to use them to their best advantage especially frog kicks and backing up with them.
I do 30-45 min of snorkeling laps in the pool with fins on for fitness and scuba skills at least once a week, and I was planning to use use the FF for that anyway, so I'll have plenty of time to get used to them before my next trip (which won't be until December). I'll take my x-pert zooms with me as well in case the FF's don't work out.
