Cressi Gara 2000 fins are on sale at leisure pro they work just as good as any other longblade fin.

I personally like the Omer Milleniums. Picasso Team fins are good also. Buy long fins.

Re: New fin recomadation

I'd go with the Cressi Garas. They're pretty high performance for a plastic blade. Plus, William Trubridge did a 88m dive with them about a month ago during the "Triple Depth" freediving competition in Dahab. Thats pretty good for a guy who's devoted his life to no-fins diving.

Just don't buy them from leisure pro. Try to support a local dive shop, or even online shop that is owned and ran by a diver.

Re: New fin recomadation

I use the Gara 200hf.( Black fins, with grey foot pocket.) Order them from Hana Paa in Hawaii, they are only about $100-125. They are very comfortable and durable fins. I can get up to 3 years from a pair, and I dive very agressively. And as for depth with non carbon fins... I have gone 122' with them. No problems.

If memory serves correct, the 2000HFs are stiffer than the 3000LDs. The Cressis have a narrower foot pocket than some of the other brands. I am a big guy with a wide foot and went with the Picasso Blackteams, they are stiffer and have a wide foot pocket.
