Something worth covering is the interchangeability or lack of brand foot pockets and blades. I have used Omar stingrays for years. So comfortable. My blades seem longer and slimmer those those here.
Being a spearfisher, and a 90kg "powerlifter" I still choose the soft carbon blade. Do to the fact that I surface swim a lot when I spearfishing. I could easily swim 1-2km in a 2-3 hours diving trip. I'm sure my legs would be fried if I choose a harder fin.
Nice video. One question. If you're thinking to start freediving and already have a nice fins for scuba. Would you buy a cheap rubber fin or will hold and save some money to buy a carbon one?
Hey thanks for all the vids. I’m looking to upgrade to carbons. Seen cheep leaderfin carbons with foot pockets wondered if you have any opinions? also any other cheaper brands (I don’t have separate foot pockets) to go for?

People tend to get fins that are too stiff. Softer is generally better for most people.
