I've got the TUSA Split fins.... I've been very happy with them.

BTW... though the "list price" of the TUSA split fins is $189, the MAP is $129 on them. So you'll see them mostly listed at that price online. You can find dealers that have them on sale often for $99/pair.

The Apollo fins that Jason refers to above are well liked also

They are good for flutter kick and receive lots of positive feedback among split fins.

However, I sold mine shortly after I learned about frogkicking and some some other alternative kicks because split fins aren't good for them. I now use scubapro jetfins (non-split) and that's what I recommend to my friends along with learning to frogkick.

If you know your size then try to find a used pair for cheap. Also, I think there is a cheaper copy available of the zooms. (IST Talaria Split Fins for about $74-90 - just googled them)

I have tried them, and I liked them. I think that they are excellent fins.

Ditto. Look on ebay. I've bought several sets of jets for less than $15/pr.

I like my Zooms a lot, been using them for almost 4 years now.

I like mine but they took some getting used to. I was ussed to using big paddle fins and they dont have the same feel at all. It does not take a hard kick at all to move them.

I have tried the apollo bio and the tusa x-pert zoom. I really liked the x-pert zoom and never had any problem with them. I ended up liking the bio slightly better but could not find anything negative to say about the zoom. Either choice of the two are good in my opinion.

I hear they're good. I use the Atomic Splits myself and love them, but they are a lot more expensive.

good luck!
