Im very used to carbon Freedive fins, however they aren’t ideal in surf. These fins are amazing! Really rate the amount of propulsion you can get with their tiny size. Best out there for sure!
Kicks are the comfiest and best shaped gun on the market for dropknee bodyboarding. My only negative I can possibly give is the lack of colorways available in Australia but also the Kicks range does not have the awesome color options that are available in the regular Dafin model.
A gift for my husband. He surfed on short boards for over 50years. “Surfer’s hip” has stopped that and he’s discovered how much fun he can have on a “booger” and these fins are a hit. He loves the soft comfort of the foot support. We are about to leave on a dive trip and these are the only ones he is taking.
I haven't tried it in the ocean because the water temperature in Korea is still winter. But they were great in the pool. Light, fit well, and had great propulsion. Plus, it's pretty to look at. I felt like other swimmers were jealous...maybe it was just my imagination.
