It must see if the test has been made confronting fins of ugual hardness, because every brand has different hardnesses…. difficult to make a confront.
 
If you look at the chart, you can see that blades of various stiffness were used at most brands. Besides it the stiffness was measure with the same method at all blades, so that the results are well comparable. Using the stiffness given by the manufacturer is often not very reliable. Read also through the test for more details on the stiffness.
 
So as far as I can see - 20 degrees and softer fins are winning as far as number of kicks and power readings is consern. One last thing left - mount optimal blades on my tennis shoes and I'm all set
