Re: waterway glide vs. leaderfins hyper

Hi guys,
I found this thread since I am about to buy monofins and want to start out good. I hoped to be able to draw a clear conclusion about which fin to choose, but it still feels like a gamble. I was thinking either hyperfin pro (leaderfin) or the glidefin (waterway) or the gripper or the cobra (andronov) (http://www.schwimmen-shop.de/product_info.php?info=p20010415_Monoflosse--Cobra-.html).
I will use the fin for freediving and therefore I think that I would be most pleased with a fin which gives a GLIDE feeling and has good manouverability. I only dive to depths of 4-5 meter max and do some snorkling and like to stay under water as long as possible. I like to make some speeds on surface for distances of 500m as well.
Are there people out there who have used some of the above mentioned monofins and can recommend me one? That would be great!
I hope to hear from you soon, since summer drifts by quickly!
Vincent
