This video answered my question. Thank you so much!!! I now know that full blade snorkel fins are what to look for, by name!!! Awesome video!!! Thanks again! Happy diving 🥰
My feet cramp a lot too. I don't have a great solution but but I've found eating bananas [I think it's the potassium] and drinking lots of water and stretching my feet, rolling them around and massaging them seems to help a lot. I definitely still always cramp though
Old comments, but I'm sure it can be of some help. My feet also cramped up in snorkling fins when I was younger, fast forward about 20 years later to last year when I was about to get my first pair and use fins again for the first time in roughly 20 years, I was really nervous about my feet cramping up, but I was just told, it was probably because I used fins that didn't fit me, and my current fins doesn't get my feet to cramp up. So I guess it's about having fins in the correct size and maybe walk in shoes that supports the curve under your feet and creates that support in your feet, I did have quite flat feet back then, now they have more of a curve to them from walking in shoes that puts up that support on them.
Yes I do like this video !! Thank you for getting to the point right away without a drawn out long intro.... Also thank you for your time and information. Got a much better idea about flippers so now, off to the ocean !!! God bless and all the rest 😀🌞
Thanks for this presentation. I uses Mares long one meter hunting fins and do five kilometer lake crossings daily in the summer in Switzerland and also circa 17 kilometer rivers swims in a strong current (so this helps shorten the distance swum) at the confluence of the Arve and Rhone rivers in Geneva. I love long fins for the additional forwards propulsion and feeling of safety they confer- I often swim alone so it important to feel strong in the water and move as fat as possible. I swim with a Baywatch type off float on a string behind me. I also do ocean swims in Thailand. These fins are so powerful that twice I have caught large carpe fish in my hands as unbelievable as this may sound and boy did they give me a perspired look.
I think it all depends on where I am snorkeling. Off the beach I use a 3rd choice- bodyboarding fins. These are similar to the short snorkel fins you showed except are a bit more streamlined and don't have an adjustable ankle strap, so you need to have different sizes if you need to wear thin or thick booties. They usually have good thrust. For boat snorkeling I used to use scuba fins, but since I prefer to travel with just a carry-on bag these days I now own the full length snorkel fins, which are a good compromise. I always wear at least fins socks when diving, just in case.
I got a pair of the short blade fins to take to the maldives. First time snorkeling and they were definitely a great starter and travel fin. Am looking to get some full blade snorkel fins in the future
Well recorded, informative, good length and straight to the point. Thank you very much! Those short snorkel fins are used by open water swimmers as well.( I think!)
I have a pair of Cressi free diving fines. They are great for snorkeling here in Puerto Vallarta, where you can swim your way from a current fairly quickly. Good for kip diving for exploring around rocks where fish hand out at.
Great video! I have longer fins for freediving, but just bought and tried out a pair of Cressi Sprint fins. I love them and they will be my go to fins when I am in 30 ft or less of water.
I plan to make a short trip to the Amalfi coast in one week. I will only go with cabin baggage and considered to buy short fins. It was just a bit weird that you mention at the full size snorkle fins that no additional gear is needed which makes traveling easier while at the short fins which actually would be 'the choice' for traveling the need for boots is totally fine... Reading the reviews of the short fins I guess I change my mind and go w/o fins. Btw. I use fins simliar to the Scuba fins you showed for snorkling for almost 30years. It's not hard to adjust the swim style that the fins don't get (significant) out of the water. For faster movement on the surface I use the arms crawling. Of course under water the trust comes only from the fins. But I can transport those fins only in my full size suitcase - diagonally. Hopefully my cold will be fully cured by then and I will be able to dive.
I’ve always been a fan of scuba fins I love the fact that i can wear my booties under them so if I come into shallow water I can pop those suckers off and walk with no problem. Plus if you use smaller kicks, you can still us them for snorkeling, it just takes some getting used to.
Yeah they are handy, mine are real stuff and heavy though. I was impressed the by the short blade snorkel fins, I might start using them more. Thanks for watching!
You should try DMC fins, they are a silicon type body surf style fin but also great for snorkeling and freediving. Super soft comy and heaps of propulsion
Can I use the last fins you mentioned to freedive? I feel they would be perfect because they're lightweight a little longer than regular snorkeling fins so I can use them to look around reefs
I have cheap pluma cressis and I just do all sorts with them, free dive, snorkel. Also gets you up to speed quickly if you need it, works fantastic with any stroke. Maybe I little uncomfortable to carry but I just don’t care about carrying stuff to go and take a dive ❤ greetings from Mallorca!
I've been looking for a decent quality freediving fin in size 34eur for my wife and it looks like the Pulma fits the bill! Can you please tell me if you feel these fins give you enough speed to fight a Rip Current? greetings from Madeira :D Thank you!
@@Ghanim.M i wouldn’t really know for sure about this, but I would have to say that I swan i bad seas with them and never felt unsafe. I would say is a mid size to small fin, very flexible so it gives you a lot of space for movement. I think it’s a great investment and not a heavy one. Hope I could be useful!
I bought a scuba fin yesterday and when I went in the water to swim they it didn't feel right (Too big and heavy). Thank you for this video. I am returning it today and will get the all purpose snorkeling.
How do you prevent chaffing in full pocket fins? I find I am between sizes and must use a larger size, but then they are slightly loose. They fall off a bit too easily and rub more because of the fit. That they don't float is a problem too. Its one thing to a scuba diver where you don't want them floating away, but different for snorkeling. Having my fin sink and then not having the propulsion to go down to get it is a problem.
How about the Mares X-One fins? Tried the Capas travel fins, will try the Mares X-One fins soon. Capas fins are 660 grams, the Mares X-One fins 1060 (I just weighed them), but quality looks better and more surface area on the Mares X-One fins.
are there any significant differences between short blade snorkel fins & bodyboarding/bodysurfing fins? I already have the latter, debating whether or not it’s worth it to get snorkel fins...
I just got stationed in Hawaii, got super into snorkeling bought a go pro, going to see if I run into more sea turtles this weekend thanks you for good vidqo
I'm planning to do some practice swims in a pool, to build up swim skills & improve my underwater skills too. Also want to be able to swim on the ocean. Can you suggest which one is best suited in my case.
Thx n which fins do you recommend for high arches plz? I bought scubapro go sport & theystrain my knees n ankles. Iʻm going on a 4-day liveaboard that offers fullheel cressis, so hoping theyʻll be fine
I live in a coastal town, just 5 min. drive from the sea, i enjoy spear fishing, (thats 8 years ago) Work schedule get in the way so i'm away from that hobby for awhile. haven't tried using fins. Planning to get back to spear fishing if i have some time. Can you give me some tips before i purchase my first fins???? I very much appreciate it if you do. I liked that Full Blade snorkel fins btw. Is that a Cressi Pluma??? Is it recommended for beginner like me???
I am a beginner with snorkelling and swimming in general. I am debating between the cressi pluma (full foot) vs the cressi palau LAF (open heel). Which would be best for beginner snorkelling, travelling, and all around multi purpose?
I would take a long fin with open heep (I doubt it exists). I know for freediving you would want less drag and weight, but in cold water or in a rocky beach it is very useful. Besides I don't plan to dive so deep so I can trade some time underwater with other needs
The small travelfins are still a huge upgrade from no fins at all, right? Been snorkeling without fins all the time, and it wasn't too bad... but holding the camera steady didn't work
Depending on the weather I want to get out in the ocean for some reef or wreck dives. As for the springs, next on the list will be Devils Dens and Blue Grotto probably. Thanks for watching!
Thank you . Very short and talking well. Just question my foot size is 11.5 and fin sizes are 10-11 . I want those fin for snorkeling they are look like to your last fin in video . Can i order them or not ?
thanks for the great video! Quick question, it seems Caravellle is no longer being made. Is there a new line of product from AquaLung that is replacing the Caravellle? Maybe Wind or Express? Thanks!!
Yeah, usually its no problem. I used my scuba fins today for snorkeling, just a little heavier and more straining on the legs, but not a problem for most experienced snorkelers. Thanks for watching!
great video!! hi joe.!! have a good evening and weekend. i hope all is well. What if your short and some what fat, you want to try snorkeling and maybe freediving and should i buy short fins or full length snorkeling medium fins? I'm short..
I have never tried them but they do look like the perfect all purpose fin, as long as they fit your foot good. I will try to find a set, thanks for the heads up
Joe Oceanside what are your recommended fitting steps. I tried on the 8/9 and they where a little tight and slightly uncomfortable for longer periods. The 9/10 fits and is slightly looser in the heel but I can’t kick them off ?
Yo I live in florida and saw your channel im new to snorkeling and have been free diving for a couple years ive been thinking about learning how to scuba dive but idk whats your opiniom
i have a prejudice against feet fins i feel like i would be dragging my feet by kicking in the water that extra length of area where the fin bends means slowing down my kick to HAVE TIME FOR THE FIN to not bend as i kick back to its stable state
with my feet the core of propulsion swimming through the water that extra hypothetical drag id have while wearing a fin is probably why i wouldn't want to wear fins
Nice video bro, I'm beginer in this world of divers and I have a cuestion: What do you think about the Cressi Rondine Palau fins? My brother gave me that fins as a birthday gift and my diving instructor is always telling me the worse things about cressi (I only want another opinion of that company)
bought fins similar to your favourite ones and they seems to float too much.....making legs always goes up....are they suppose to float? cause it always brings my legs above my body...do i add weights on it to make it sink bleow my waist?
If you are just snorkeling then that is fine. But if you plan to freedive you can wear a weight belt to help counteract the natural buoyancy of your body and gear. Just do NOT overweight it, that could be dangerous
Bless you for getting straight into it with no rambling intro! Super informative and to the point, thank you 😊
Ya, many people tend to ramble and not just get to the point like him
This video answered my question. Thank you so much!!! I now know that full blade snorkel fins are what to look for, by name!!! Awesome video!!! Thanks again! Happy diving 🥰
i learned how to swim thanks to full blade snorkel fins, now i freedive..
cool that awesome
@@JoeOceanside how do you keep your feet from cramping while using fina? My worst enemy while diving

cool, yeah they are the best all around fins
I have them, super nice
full blade snorkel fin -- way to go! thanks mate
You bet!
Thanks for the explanation, Ive just been trying to decide which type to get between scuba & snorkel, so truly helpful

You really need to try a monofin then.😂
short fins are great for body boarding too!
There are some more carvings from the 1800s later in the vid as well. thanks for watching

ll like full blade snorkell fins,,,,,, because I'am a beginne and I want to learn more
Yeah I think for most purposes the full blade snorkel fin is the best
I love the cressi long fins there's a carbon fiber and its the creesi gara long fins for free diving
The carbons look awesome
I been using scuba fins while snorkeling I had no clue but I don't have a hard time snorkeling with em to be honest.
Yeah, usually its no problem. I used my scuba fins today for snorkeling, just a little heavier and more straining on the legs, but not a problem for most experienced snorkelers. Thanks for watching!

What’s your thoughts on the new Cressi freefrog frins as a snorkelling alrounder fin?
I have never tried them but they do look like the perfect all purpose fin, as long as they fit your foot good. I will try to find a set, thanks for the heads up
Joe Oceanside what are your recommended fitting steps. I tried on the 8/9 and they where a little tight and slightly uncomfortable for longer periods. The 9/10 fits and is slightly looser in the heel but I can’t kick them off ?
@@mattsmith2051 try the bigger ones with socks or diving socks. They will cushion your foot and make it fit a little tighter
what type should i get for long-distance swimming and do you recommend opened or closed ankles?
Yo I live in florida and saw your channel im new to snorkeling and have been free diving for a couple years ive been thinking about learning how to scuba dive but idk whats your opiniom
Yeah scuba is alot of fun! Takes some money to get started between getting certified and renting gear.
How about the short fins, is it use for snorkeling and diving?
Freediving fins (although it is a pain to walk up to the diving board in them)
i have a prejudice against feet fins
i feel like i would be dragging my feet by kicking in the water
that extra length of area where the fin bends means slowing down my kick to HAVE TIME FOR THE FIN to not bend as i kick back to its stable state
with my feet the core of propulsion swimming through the water that extra hypothetical drag id have while wearing a fin is probably why i wouldn't want to wear fins
Would you use diving fins for snorkeling? I don't want to buy three or four pairs of fins when i can use one pair for more than one thing.
I have short blade ones are those ok to go into deaper waters?
Deeper water? Yeah you could use them, you just won't have as much power as you would with big ones.
@@JoeOceanside ok I was wondering that thank you for that because of the lake I'm going to has deeper waters so yea
Duck feet, all around bodyboarding, snorkeling, bodysurfing.
Cool, I will check them out

@@JoeOceanside yes so much easier especially with all the other gear we lug around lol.
