All that I have measured are in the spreadsheet (2 attachments) on the first post.
I have the following Force Fin variants on hand to measure and add:
XXL Pros
XXL Hockeys
Adjustables

Ok, I'll download that.

Will add Force Pros 3XL and original Scubapro Sea wings (closed heel).
 
I'm trying to find a spreadsheet I made from the summer with buoyancy characteristics of fins I had access to. Here are XXL jet fin foot pocket dimensions.

The spread sheet wouldn't copy over. I weighed each fin with a fish scale in a trashcan full of water. Hopefully this helps with data not readily available on the vendor websites.

Thanks for the info folks. Please keep it coming in when you have an opportunity.

I'm hoping to maybe start adding things again on Thursday if the world will just stop spinning quite so fast!
 
Eyeline of Australia, if you're good enough and have the climate you won't find a better fin

Exquisite comfort

Sizing for a foot, not a sausage


They can even outfit Thorpie the Thorpedo
 
Do you have an updated version of your spreadsheet ?
Sorry, no. Despite your contribution of the buoyancy figures and some limited bird-dogging of manufacturer specs, there just wasn't enough interest and data to make it comprehensive enough to have value. I was also rather perplexed by a request to not include publicly-observable information on a product line that I love.
