Anyone else feel the jet fin pocket is super flat up and down and painful on the foot? Better alternative?
I used Jet fins for over 20 years and yes the foot pocket sucks.
I just recently discovered Scubapro Go Sport fins and they are the best fin ever (BFE).
 
The foot pocket on Jetfins is a great fit for a house brick but not so much for a human foot.

I fixed an old pair by sticking them in boiling water for 10 minutes, then ramming a pair of walking boots into them. Once they cooled down, they kept the new shape and remained comfortable.

Then I bought Hollis F1s and never looked back.

Yes, I loathe them.

Been trialing the 4th element equivalents, way more comfortable, similar finning characteristics, similar stiffness, slightly lighter.
