Re: Footpockets similar to Esclapez

Quote:
The Esclapez/Imersion footpocket is comfortable but the power transmission is impaired due to the softness of the footpocket. The only comparably 'weak' footpocket is the Picasso.
I beg to differ there, the picasso black team footpocket is one of the hardest wearing footpockets out there, Ive had my fins for almost 3 years now and still struggle to twist the heel open when putting them on. Ive been ofered more money for the footpockets than what the fins were by a mate who deals in spearfishing equipment and his quote was that those pockets are some of the best on the market...

Back to the question compared to esclapez the picasso black team footpocket is very similar, Ive tried both and the picasso felt best, they mite be a tad wider but still very similar. Heres a link to a thread on fins where different pockets and feet sizes and shapes got listed... http://forums.deeperblue.net/freediv...your-info.html
Hope this helps
