Recently I did a search of this site for fin wieght. I found a lot of good information but didn't find the information on a couple of options I was considering. I had a hard time finding some of this information on the manufacturers websites. In the case of the Mako fins it was not listed.
These weights are per fin with footpockets attached (size 46-47)
Mako Carbon Elite Medium stiffness 2.33lbs
C4 Indian "30" medium stiffness 1.44lbs
For comparision, my Cressi plastic open back scuba fins that aren't nearly as long were right at 2lbs.
I found the 300 footpockets on the C4 fins horribly oversized--as in 2 full finger widths behind my heel. The C4 fins seemed on the medium light side as far as stiffness. I think I would be worried about banging them up and breaking them.
The Mako fins fit well. The Mako footpockets and rails were thick rubber. The blades also seemed more durable and probably on the medium + side of flexibility.
