5.0 out of 5 stars Best of both worlds-Fast fins that act like a shoe..., April 27, 2008

Ever try to walk around in swim fins, especially the long ones? It ain't easy. The Trek's made it a breeze for me though I probably looked like a duck because of their shape.

I tried the long and thin Proflex II's but they were so flimsy they curled with every kick of my legs creating drag which quickly tired me out. Walking in them was impossible.

The Trek's stiffness and short length propelled me through the water like I was flying using rapid stiff leg bent at the knee minikicks. They held their own advancing against the strong current of tuber's river rapids without a problem. Also used them as shoes to brace myself standing moving limestone boulders the size of 5 gallon water jugs out of the way of the rapids.

I couldn't believe how tough these fins were. The rubber/plastic material is thicker than the Proflex II's and they fit perfectly and comfortably. I walked on concrete without slipping and could brace myself from hitting huge underwater... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Good fins for travel., February 21, 2010

I really love these fins. I bought them because they are short, so I can easily put them in my backpack when traveling to and from the boat and beach into the water.

You get as much power as long fins because they're wider. I've used them while snorkeling in Bonaire, Hawaii, and Thailand.

The best part is you can walk in them! Either from the beach into the waves or after getting ready to dive on a boat. You just can't do that with regular long fins. This is a HUGE convenience.

The only reason I'm knocking a star off my rating is I had a busted buckle. I just did a McGyver and wrapped a hairband to keep the buckle on. Still works great and no problems since!

I got that buckle replaced for free by the manufacturer, so yay!

I've now taken them to Fiji, Australia, and Maui and they continue to impress. My fellow scuba divers assume they don't work as well as the long ones and are amazed... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome snorkeling fins, February 28, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
I bought these fins to use with my snorkel and mask during a trip to Cozumel. We snorkeled every day and the fins were awesome. The length was great for packing and provided more than enough power for moving against the current and diving 10 feet to grab shells or take underwater photos. They were very comfortable on bare feet, and I especially liked the extended sole that covered my heel for standing on rocks in the water. They were really easy to get off/on and adjust heel strap. I let me sister wear them on one outing, and although her travel fins (different brand) were ok, they weren't as comfortable or as powerful as these. She liked these better too and plans to order them for her next trip.
