From what ive read these fins provide little strain on the legs and work very well, even in current. My question to you is what do you guys think about these fins. Personal experience, pros/cons. Thanks!

I have a set of raptors and like them. Really all the "Natures wing" design split fins are VERY similar. The raptors are a little stiffer than the Tusa Zooms, for example, but it's a minor difference.

I have a new set for sale. I used them for ow class and thats it. Decided to go the jet fin route. Pm me for price if interested.
They are yellow and black size small btw and great fins.

Raptors, like all Mares fins, are well made.
The concept that: ... "all the "Natures wing" design split fins are VERY similar." is not quite true.
The materials used, plastics VS. rubber, the foot pocket design, the angle of the blade, the type of strap, all those things do come into play.
There is a difference.
