Monfins are:
* faster & more efficient
* use a wider range of muscles
* better hydrodynamics because you have less turbulence
* can help relax diaphragm muscles.
World records are all being set with them (did I miss any fin based record in the last 2 years that is still being done with bi-fins?)
The disadvantages of them:
* poor maneuverability
* bulky to travel with
* difficult to stay still with (underwater photography comes to mind) unless you are on the bottom
Waterways is the brand that I own and that I know several other people use. Ordering them can be a bit of a pain.
