Diving Fins:
Diving Fins are for Propulsion and ManoeuvringΒ underwater.
The Two Types of fins are open heel and closed heel Fins. Most open heel fins require the diver to wear booties.
Stiff Fins generally float and force a bad attitude in the water, whereas a softer rubber fin, or a fin with a rubber membrane, are slightly negatively buoyant and bring your feet down for a straight and streamlined profile.
The key is to choose fins that are not necessarily good looking, but are comfortable and soft in the water.
Another consideration is a fin with spring straps as they are far easier to pull on and off in a crowded dive boat.
