“Ahhh the Apeks RK3 fins – these guys are seriously powerful; insanely comfortable and perfect if you prefer frog-kicking for great aqua-dynamics.
Sure they’re a little heavier than the average dive fins but not overwhelmingly so (they’re just fins!) and a little extra weight is worth the insane thrust that they provide.
It makes total sense to wear shorter fins of a tec design – they’re way less likely to get caught on anything which is handy when you’re somewhere like a wreck or a cave.
On top of all that, they appear to be virtually indestructible – I’ve been dragging mine around the world for years and they still show no sign of wear or tear.
If you can afford these somewhat expensive dive fins, it’s money well spent. A final bonus – you get to brag you use the same dive fins as US military divers do”!
