Re: Beginners monofin?

Wow, that was alot of help at once! thanks so much for all your advice! I´ts interesting to see that preferments are so different.

To Santo: your absolutely right, I have just gotten into freediving. I´ve been scubadiving for a while though. Sounds like a wise choice to give the suit higher priority. I only have apollo bio-fins so far. Do you think those are usable or should I consider pure freediving fins? I will surely have a look at the suit-discussion, I would reallu like to find the perfect one

To fondueset: Do you think having a vest underneath the suit is better than going for a thicker suit? Still, I really see the advantage of having that extra mm to adjust with!

To Jon: Man! That doesn´t look good! I have very wide feet, so comfort is of high priority Could you explain what you mean by a true fin-swimming fin? And what is the most important factor with the angle? Is it necessary for a beginner like me?

What do you all think about the factor that Sam mentioned about the Omer pockets; She said they could make your feet move around and that you lost some power?
