Love my HOG mask, which is equal to or better than the Oceanic Shadow I have, and a lot lower in price. No neoprene "slap strap" though, if that interests you....

It is my understanding that OMS no longer produces the Slipstream pretend Jets?

You are correct, old stock or second hand only. There still seem to be a few shops selling them though.
Well, if I was a betting man, I would predict that thirty years from now I will still be diving my real Jets when nobody can remember what an OMS was (possibly including me). Get back with me in 2043. They will only be 60 years old and I will only be 90.

Too bad if the Slipstreams aren't being made now--I think they're a solid swimming fin and they sold for a great price. The Jets are great fins but just don't fit me as well. We'll compare notes in 30 years to see if my Slipstreams are still going strong. I'll be nigh to 90 as well.

it is a deal , I bought my Jets sometime circa 1980 plus or minus, so I think they have a bit of a head start on your Slipstreams. Where shall we meet?

ill take the bet neither of us will be alive in 2043. I'll keep you posted, I've marked it down on my calendar
