My jet fins have served me well since 1975! Still diving with them
Additional marketing ideas:
The small slot in the Taiwanese version would make an excellent place to stow your lit cigarette between dives.
The hole could also be used to play peek-a-boo with ladies at the bar; maybe a great way to let them know you’re a diver without having to be explicit about it.
Thank you.
I know this video is 2 years old but I was wondering, is there a difference in the foot pocket size of the older US version vs the newer Taiwan version?
Same. The USA had an additional size (3XL) that size is no longer available.
FYI - the USA version is all gone.
Is there a big difference in weight and buoyancy? Negative of Positive. 😊
The USA version is heavier and more negative (if all equal in terms of spring straps). But... not by much, I find it hardly noticeable.
USA all the way :) Is that a Halcyon reg case in the upper right?
Yup! Good eye/
@@SCUBAandSNORKEL Thank you, are these around 85 usd?
@@joshs3916 yup. motorcityscuba.com/shop/motor-city-scuba/en/product/other-good-stuff/bags-and-boxes/halcyon/voyager-case-34653
@@SCUBAandSNORKEL Thanks. When I am changing out halcyon spring straps on my jetfins, can they be removed by using a rwench? I have never removed a set and I ma buying a used pair that might not fit. The seller has a spare set, but since I am not buying both straps, I cannot grind down/break the bolts if the ones that are currently on there do not fit.
@@joshs3916 yeah you can remove the straps with a screwdriver and wrench or nut driver. Check out this video

The Taiwan version is negative as hell! I believe the US version is neutral to slightly negative. Wish they still sold those here
You mean there's more than one strap design available? Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
The hole is a Military thing... it's mean to put in a loop of 550 cord so you can take them off and clip them to a carabineer on your belt for 'say' climbing the side of a ship or oil rig with your hands free to hold 'say' a weapon and the caving ladder.
cool bro
Both versions are far too floppy.
