Questions about this item:
sean s I have size 9 Aqualung EchoZip Ergo 5mm Boots. What size should I get?
GREG A sz large. if you were an 11 or up I would say xl.
ERIC C The foot pocket on these isn't the biggest. Get XL
BRITT O large i wear a 8.5 and i used a large pair
MARK K I don't know about your boots and sizing. My street shoe is 9.5, and I found the Large fins to be too small. The x-large fins were just about right.
Keith H Does anyone know if the XL Jets will work with the Oceanic Neo Classic 6.5mm booties in size Medium? Mens 8-9?
Monica s For this type of boot in this size you should be fine in the XL.
Dan E Hi......
I want to upgrade from my split fins,but I'm stuck between these Scubapro Jet fins and the HOLLIS F-1 fins.
Can anyone help me out?????
Pro's & Con's
Thank you
Danny
MICHAEL P Overall, jet fins are great for any type of diving where you properly use horizontal trim. The foot pockets are larger, which is nice for DUI Rock Boots or something similar. However, the primary thing I like about the Hollis fins is that the foot pockets are narrower. With nearly any dry suit or wet suit boots, I find that my feet fit better in the Hollis fins.
I own jet fins (multiple pairs) and have never had a single issue, so quality is great... Just that small complaint on size.
DARIN A The jet fins (with spring straps) are fantastic--durable, add a good amount of weight, great for frog kicking and backward kicking. My only con is that the foot pocket is tight on the tops of my feet.
Shopper I wear a size 11. My XL scubapro spit fins are extremly tight over my Bare Dry Suit rock boots. Would an XXL in the pro fins work?
DANIEL K sorry for the delay - yes - it should fix the issue...
LINDSAY A These are well made fins and comfortable with soft foam rubber booty type inner shoes. Keep in mind these are large fins and if your legs are not used to snorkeling, scuba diving, etc. you will tire quickly. Consider smaller fins for the beginner.
MICHAEL T I am also a size 11, but I use the DUI rock boots. The XL ScubaPro Jet fin was too small so I use the XXL. The XXL has a very large foot pocket so I end up with a bit of side to side and up and down movement. The extra movement doesn't bother me unless I have to kick fast. I am also using the ScubaPro spring straps.
Shopper I wear male size 7 shoe my boot is Aqualung 5mm with a wet suit, What size shall I get?
ROYSTON N I think you should get the XL size because your boots will make your feet chunky thick.
Shopper Looking for fins with some positive buoyancy to trim my legs up. Does the Jet have positive buoyancy? In other search engines this one pops up when I search "positive buoyancy fins" but I don't see anything to confirm that.
JAMES J These fins have some weight to them and do not float. When I wear them my feet & legs sink under the water. This helps me dive down to the bottom and swim better across the surface but I would not consider them to have 'positive buoyancy' like some other cheaper snorkeling fins I have. Those other fins pretty much float and keep my feet on the surface while swimming.
RON H If by positive boyuancy you mean the fins float or will help keep you horizonal in the water, the answer is no. I have used jet fins since my first cert.
I have owned/used others as well. in the last 4 yrs the jet fin is the only fin I now own.(3 prs)
Feel free to contact me if you are interesed in reasons of my choice.
Ron
DANIEL L Nope. Def negative in the water. Perfect for dry suit diving. Heavy rubber material.
STEPHEN S Take a look at the Scubapro Twin Jet " Max". Not the old school Jet
Fin or the Regular Twin Jet. It's the Max that are very buoyant. A bit pricey but it will do the trick for sure. Any chance your tank is too low in the BCD? These fins are heavy at 2lbs 9oz on average. But buoyant as can be.
CARL S These fins are not positive. In fact, that is why many older drysuit divers
use them. They are a rugged old school fin that does the job.
If you loose it...Its heading to the bottom.
BARRY A Scubapro Jet Fins are negative for buoyancy, you'll see a lot of technical divers use them for this feature because most of the time they are wearing dry suits.
Jeremie B I tried the jet fins in a store and surprisingly, there are 2 TYPE of jet fins. A normal type and a garage type. That's why when people try an XL, they feel it's too tite, and XXL (the garage size), they feel it's too big.
Basically, my question is : "Is your XXL pocket look the same SHAPE than the XL?" And I would like to have more photos to confirm that before buying the fin.
Thanks a lot.
RAYMOND H the foot size is of course bigger, if you are looking at fin,the length is same but the place you put your foot is alot wider..very nice fins for fighting current, and they will last over 25 years, but they are very heavy,that is the only down part of these fins,weight......
geoff g i have a size 12 wide foot. i wear scubapro 5mil neoprene booties. i am real confused on the sizing for Jet fins based on everything i read.
does anyone know what size would fit me best? I think the XXL will be way to big and the XL might be too small....
thanks!
JOHN B XL should be good for a size 12. From what I've seen on Jets the biggest problem is if your booties have a thick or wide sole on them. Hard sole booties probably won't fit.
All of this said, if you haven't used a Jet before you are going to be in for a serious workout. They provide a serious amount of power and control but your legs have to do the work. The XL has significant mass and surface area and unlike plastic fins, they are negatively buoyant. I would stay away from the XXL at all costs. It is about 3in longer and 1.5in wider than a medium and requires too much force to kick.
WALDEMAR K Hi
Last year i bought the SCUBAPRO JET FINS In XL and they where to small,but I use my with drysute with drysute boots.I send them back
and get XXL now they fit perfect. But for I know resent SCUBAPRO add a size now You can chose between XL , XXL , XXXL when I bought my there was only XL ,and XXL My regular shoe size is 10.5 I try XL and I think they will fit ok.
WALTER
Jean-David D If you use a tropical bootie you will be fine with the XL. I wear the same size and it works for me. I recommend the OMS fins unless you need the weight of a heavier fin. I have both and use my OMS much more that the Jets.
RICHARD N Geoff,
I would suggest the XXL.
I have a regular 10.5 size foot and with 5mm boots I found a large to be to small.
So with a 12 wide and boots, Id go with the XXL. You can't go wrong with leisure pro though, if it's the wrong size exchangeing it is quick and easy.
Hope this helps
Shopper i wear an xl oms slipstream. what size jetfins should i get? thanks
DAVID V If you are diving soft booties get XL Jetfins. If you are using hard sole booties or diving a dry suit get the XXL Jetfins. They have a large foot pocket to accomodate these. I wear XL (size 11-12) Oceanic hard sole boots and dive a Zeagle (Otter) TLS dry suit and they are very comfortable. Great fins, last a lifetime.
KENNETH H I got those fins and forget the size, but they didn't fit (they gave me some bad abrasions) but I couldn't return them. I'd recommend not getting fins by mail order.
DAVID H I got myself an XL size but if i should have buy it again i would get and XXL because some booties doesn't fit in the XL size
C LEROY A Sorry, I have no idea.
RICK Z I wear a size 10 shoe and the large is fine although the strap could be longer.
NICHOLAS C Honestly it depends on your bootie...These jetfins are awesome but ensuring proper fit can be challenging. Most people wear XL but if you dive dry suits, you'll need XXL or the XL designed for dry suits.
VINCENT K Keep the slipstreams! Same exact fin b.ut half the weight as the jets. I have both nd use the Slipstreams only now. I had the jets.first. Why do you want the jets? Performance is the same between the two. Actually, I like the slips better!
RICHARD M I wear a size 11.5 to 12 shoe. I wear XL Jet Fins with wet suit boots and XXL Jet Fins with dry suit boots.
Shopper I wear a size 9 Akona Deluxe Molded Sole 6 mm Boots.What size boots and springs for these fins please?
RICHARD B extra large fins. I do not use springs
Garrett S I just purchased a pair size M, but they are too small. I wear a size 7 reef boot (fairly robust, feels like 5mm neoprene, with a solid rubber sole). The size M fins are definitely too small. Will the size L fins be sufficiently large or should I consider size XL? Thanks, all.
Monica s Large should be sufficient.
Shopper Hi,
I'm a size 12 shoe. Woould an xl fit me if I wwear a 5 mm neoprene bootie? It sounds like the XXL is too big and the XL might be too small. Any ideas?
JOHN B XL is as large as you want to go. I'd like to say it will fit, but that really depends on how big the sole is on your booties. If it's just a 5mm soft bootie/sock, you should be fine.
TIMOTHY G XL would be perfect I'm a 12D and fit great I use spring straps also for use ith my drysuit rock boots
Shopper Any idea how much the XL jet fins weigh??
CHERRY H Our entire family uses these. I believe they are the best and we would not dive with anything else, That is because they give a lot of power to your kicking. True you need strong legs and these will build that. My husbands BCD would not work to put air into it at about 85 ft and he was able to kick back up to the surface because he had so much power to kick. That was worth a mint to us. right there. Also they are not so darn long and getting around things on the bottom is better, too.
On the down side, they are heavy when packing for airline trips but we would really miss them, so we take them.
MARK C My Scubapro XL Jet Fins weigh 3.4 lbs. (or 3 lbs, 6 oz) each.
Shopper Used to have the old size XL and that smashed my feet real bad. Would the XL updated size work? My foot is size 10.
PETER J with 3- 5 mm boots it is tight but not uncomfortable and I am a 10 1/2!
ANTHONY S Hello
I did not keep any of them the xl was to tight for the wetsuit boots and the xxl was way to big. They were made good but did not fit my Bear trilam boots at all as I remember. I would order two sizes and return the one that dosent fit. I have not herd that they have been updated I did like them but they just did not fit a size 10 foot bear wet suit boot at that time.
Thanks Anthony
TRAVIS K They were to small for me, I wear 10.5's in street shoe sizes. I went with "turtle" brand fins instead. FYI my turtles fit with both my wetsuit and drysuit boots, these twin jets didn't fit with either boot.
JEFF K I wear a size 11 shoe and the XL fits great. Make sure you have the proper bootie to start. I've been diving with these fins weekly at the Denver Aquarium where they really take a beating. They're bullet proof and I highly recommend them.
RICK Z I wear a 10 and the XL is perfect. The strap seems a little short at times.
Shopper If I wear size 6 in 7mm Henderson aqua lock boots, would medium be the right size?
KEVIN J yes, i belive so, im a reserch diver for the navy, and thats about the rite size that every one wears with that shoe size....
LEWIS H Some times the best design is the original design. I first used this design in 1972. I've tried several "fashionable" designs over the years but for efficiency, nothing beats the ScubaPro Jet Fin. I have a pair that will, no doubt, out last me (if I don't lose them some how). The fin delivers the best output (thrust) per input (kick effort) of all other designs I have tried, IMHO. They are also the most maneuverable design I have used. The fins work best with a steel spring heel strap. On the contrary, they are negatively buoyant. And, on the dive, boat your fellow divers may percieve you to be way out of the fashion loop! ;-).
To answer your question, I would say "probably". Why don't you go down to the local dive shop with your 7 mil booties and strap on a set.
MARK K Honestly, no idea. I wear a size 9-1/2 street shoe, but with my drysuit boots I have to have the X-Large fins. With my regular dive boots the X-Large fins are comfortable to wear (and easier to get on/off than with the drysuit). I also replaced the straps with spring straps, that also help with getting the fins on/off in the drysuit.
DAN S Don't think it will as they take a small sole boot and not that thick bottom boot. Had to wear my blue reef non boot bottom booties. The fins are GREAT!
Dan
Shopper What is the easiest way to remove the "old" strap retainers so I can add the spring strap?
ELLEN W hi there!
I'm pulling this from memory, but I think you basically have to break the old strap (I don't have it in front of me). You have to bend up the U-shaped metal piece so that the pin that goes through the solid part of the fin is freed, then squeeze on the new one with the spring straps. Does that make sense?
STEVEN S Bolt cutters or hacksaw
NATHANIEL K The easiest way to remove the old strap buckles is with a pair of channel-lock pliers. Close the pliers and put the closed jaws through the buckle. Then just pull the pliers open. They have plenty of leverage to pry the old buckles. Conveniently, channel-lock pliers are also the ideal tool for attaching the new spring-strap buckles (use a shop rag to protect the finish).
MARK M I just used a pair of pliers to basically bend the old retainer until it popped off the post then added the spring straps.
ERIC J It was a while ago, but I think I used clippers or wire cutters to cut off the strap bracket. I then put the spring strap brackets through the holes. The fact that I don't recall, leads me to believe it wasn't too difficult.
JOSEPH G It's been a while but I remember cutting the original metal clip off the jet fin. everything was fairly easy
PETER B I used a die grinder, like a Dremel to grind a rivet head off. With one leg free I could pry the attachment open and slide it out of the mounting lug of the fin.
A pair of pump pliers (like Channel Lock) worked good for cinching the new spring straps and it all worked out very well.
