So were there any reviews on the fins people bought? The Leaders I bought ate my feet to shreads. Just wondering what fins Benson is using now as me and him have a similar body structure except my stomach is bigger

Several top level players like Thomas, Guillaume and Benson have contributed by their comments to the developpement of this product. Those fins have been used by players of the French national team in Bari (and Belgians).

The fiber plane itself is from far really more resistant and the protective "rubber" envelopp hundred times more efficient than Leaderfins or Special fins. They have the exact dimension of ALA fins. They are available in different level of resistance.

But they are still some issues with lateral border on the custom made footpocket and a lack of inclinaison (0%).

Those fins will be available very soon (end of october) with a Beuchat footpocket, a equivalent lateral border as ALA & Quattro and an inclinaison of 17%. Which will make of it a really well finished product.

An update (border & inclinaison) of the custom made footpocket product is planned for january 2008.

Breier has a product that is currently in the pipeline and expected for october 2008 that will be a little revolution for our game.

Is there anywhere to order these fins online?

Has anyone tried either of these fins?

UW Games fin 130
Underwater fins with omer foot pockets

also, judging by previous responses on this thread regarding fibreglass fins and safety, are the UW Games fin 130 legal as only the edge appears to have a 'protective' rubber coating.

Aren't "Underwater fins with omer foot pockets" the ones that you bought Benson? You haven't commented on them yet.

It seems to me that these fins still don't have enough ribs to ensure straight waterflow over the fin. Am I wrong?
