Not sure if the foot-pocket is exactly the same as the old one, or rather the new one, or if it is their own, but I could mount C4 blades into it easily, and they are quite comfortable. The only unfortunate thing is that I bough the fins little bit too big for my feet, so I'll have to put the C4 blades into my Beuchat pockets which are great and fit perfectly, but have different screw holes and the slit in the sides is smaller too, so I'll need to work the blades little bit.
BTW, what was the reason for the divorce with H. Dessault?

Dessault was a chief designer for Sporasub for many years then left and set up on his own, keeping his name for the company, Dessault. He was also a fine spearfishermam and held the record for European Bass at over 13kg!! I do not know why he left the company but QC was never great at Rapallo when I used to buy direct from them so maybe that was it.
