Omer Stingray vs. millenium...

[Krakenlims]

Hi,
Can anyone shed any light on the differences between Omer Stingray and Omer Millennium foot pockets?
Thanks

I had both, one set of milleniums, then i wore out one and a half sets of stingrays before losing one and going to a different fin. The milleniums are an older model and (i think) were a softer natural rubber. To my knowledge they are no longer sold. Performance wise the stingray rubber was a bit stiffer which should provide better power transfer but i cannot comment since i had plastic blades in my millenniums and carbon in the stingrays, and the difference in the rubber seemed very slight. Fit was identical as was shape if i remember correctly.

Great thanks, I will get Stingrays...
I am shoe size 8 - 8.5 (UK + Australia) (42-43 Europe)
I will wear with 2 mm neoprene socks.
What size of foot pocket should I get?
Thanks for the help.

i duno. try on a pair with your neoprene socks. Omer pockets are a touch wide so if you have a narrow foot you might not like them.
