Hello,
What are the differences between omer stingray and sporasub spitfire ?
i tried the omer stingray and it feel snug and I did not fall off the leg.
I use them without socks, but I only saw my toes tips. It was about an one centimeter or close from the toes tips to the end of the footpockets.
Is it normal or is it too long?
Thanks
 
Deja Vu. Do you want wear neoprene socks with them? If so, buy or borrow the socks (some stores have a few for this purpose) and try fitting while wearing them.

The thing about your toe tips & the hole sounds ok and normal to me.

Omer has a good reputation for fins, except perhaps the wonderful but flawed transparent Ice fins, which snapped. Omer footpockets are well regarded. However I believe Omer own Sporasub, so pretty much the same brand. The Sporasub brand seems a little higher end and/or a bit more expensive and/or innovative/cutting edge/gimmicky (although Omer seem pretty innovative to me too). Sporasub seems to be aimed at experienced spearos, while Omer covers everything from beginner to World Champions.

Several French companies make decent spearing fins too ("palmes"). Apnea.co.uk used to carry some interesting French brands at reasonable prices.
 
i want use them barefoot, just wondering if the foot pocket longer in one centimter of my feet if its ok or not or i need looking for other brand that fit better?
and if the shape of the sporasub is diffrent ?
thx
