Comments about Oceanic Vector Open Heel Fins:

I used this fin for snorkling and it didn't perform to well. The fins would probably work well for scuba because once they were underwater they performed very well...though big and I became tired easily...however they were rockets underwater and I don't snorkle enough to be a pro and that could lead to my fatigue. While snorkling at the top the fins were very buoyant and slapped the top of the water. I'll keep this fins around for cold water but I'll probably just by a set of warm water fins that are a split design or a little smaller. But again I'm just a recreational diver...the qualitry and comfort was very good and an overall good value.

Finally gave up on trying to play with buckles and replaced with buckles from a Mares set that is too small for my drysuit boot.

When I bought these I hoped that they would be an open heal version of my favorite Carib fins by the same manufacturer. They are not. They are too stiff to be efficient.

To my surprise I find these fins have more control and more power than any split-fins I've used. I'm keeping 'em!

For the price, you can't beat the versatility. I've worn them in caves, deep water, snorkeling in currents, diving in currents, you name it, they haven't let me down.
