Monofin fun!

Post by YellowEye »

Hi
I got to do some free diving tonight, with the new Smith Aerospace mono fin. It was so cool. When I was diving behind my buddy, I felt like an Orca whale as a part of an Orca pod (the tail motion and looks are very similar). Sweet! Dang those things are efficient and fast.

We dove the slopes off the Cedar River Delta in Lake Washington. It was the worst viz I'd seen there ever (it is usually pretty good there). My buddy saw what he said was an 85 lb carp!

Way cool!

Holy Schnikes - That fin is $1500! The least that they could do is give you two at that price :-)

Please give us a report on how it would do in cold water diving. Last time we talked about this fin it stirred quite the controversy...
