I bought my first carbon fins 2 years ago. Omer (Valeri Grassi) hard. Had 20 diving days with them, treated them nice (in hand luggege flying etc). Jumped off a 1m high ledge and one of the fins snapped. 5 days later i managed to get a hold of a new pair of fins (the new omer variable ..), had 10 dives or so with them, and one day diving at 30 m or so, I turned around for the acent, kicked off (open water, no bottom or objects) and one of the fins broke right off. Almost had to drop my weights to get to the surface (packed a bit too much i guess). Wrote Omer about the last incident (understanding that dropping off feet first from 1 m is not reccomended), hoping for a replacement blade.
Are omer fins more fragile then most?
What should I expect of omer?
Just recieved new monofin (getting expensive this), Breier Maximum thrust, both as a "subjective variety bandaid of sorts" to my fin breakage incidents, as well as a result of hearing that monofins are more durable... Well are they?
Im 190 cm tall, and weigh 95 kilograms, so I am not abnormal in any way.
