First Monofin: so many choices! Help!

[Clew296]

I'm new to freediving and am
Looking to buy my first monofin. *gasp of excitement!* I've tried the Waterways glide and loved it, though tough on the feet ... And beyond my budget!
-budget €250
-needs to ship to Ireland
-required for training DYN and then CWT 30m+
- I'm 5'7, size 37 foot size and a strong swimmer with a decent dolphin kick so I'm guessing a medium blade?

Waterways Nemo coming up a bit as well as leader fins 'hyper fiber with neoprene'.
Any suggestions, tips or advice much appreciated!
Cheers
