My wife has been using Aqua Lung Blades for over ten years, but they are starting to show some wear that will require their replacement soon. I would like some suggestions on replacement paddle type fins. She has no interest in any of the split fin variants.
Thanks in advance!
Details:
- Wife swims three or more time per week, and has a very strong kick when needed.
- She likes the stiffness of the Blades, their light weight, and the relative size.
- She has a large adult male's full mass, so wishy-washy fins are unacceptable.
- Needs to be an open heel.
- Needs to be durable and last.
BTW - Does anyone have any reliable way to repair (or stop) the cracks/separation that is occurring in the base of foot pocket opening between the hard plastic and rubber parts? Thought I would ask, but I can't think of anything that would hold up.
