Looking at purchasing Scubapro GO Sport Fins - Facebook Marketplace
Oceanic Viper - 23.5 inches long, 1.79 pounds each = 3.58 pounds
Deep 6 - 21 inches long, 2.25 pounds each = 4.5 pounds
Go Sport Large - 21.38 inches long, 1.82 pounds each = 3.64 pounds (only saving length, not weight)
Go Sport Medium - 20.35 inches long, 1.65 pounds each = 3.31 pounds (saving some weight)
Purchased Go Sport Medium from Kendyll Gooding (Facebook Marketplace) for $60. She is a dive instructor for Denver Divers and goes on a lot of trips with them. Her next trip is to Roatan on Friday. I am looking forward to giving these a try on my next dive.
