Just got PADI open water certified in August, and been on a couple dives since then. Have some of my own gear, borrowing some as well right now. Need help on picking out some open heel split fins for use in the Puget Sound. So if you could take a look at my post http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/fins-masks-snorkels/401153-newer-diver-needs-help-picking-out-split-fins.html it would sure help me.
