Hi everyone! I’m a new diver. I bought my 1st pair of fins last year: Scubapro GoSports. I am very positively buoyant, and find that with the GoSports my legs are too floaty. They put me head down when descending (from shore or boat) and sometimes at safety stop. I’m looking for fins that would be less positive.
My LDS recommended Hollis F2s but, researching them, I found that many folks said that they lack power in current. This concerns me because we dive in Cozumel a lot. I always just drift with the current, but want something that would be strong enough to fight a current, if necessary.
I dive wet- 3mm full in Cozumel (w/16-18 lbs lead), and 7mm full (w/23 lbs, including stainless plate) on local Massachusetts shore dives. I may want to switch to drysuit diving in the next couple of years, in order to be able to do more local cold water diving.
Does anyone have any recommendations for me? F2s good enough? Better options?
Thanks so much for any advice you can give me!
