"I was diving in a current so strong that it could have ripped off my face mask if I had turned my head to the side. It was difficult enough just to stay prone in the water, let alone carry a bulky camera housing and try to maintain my balance to compose a picture. The entire mission would have been thwarted if I had lost power for a moment, but my FORCE FINS came through as they had done on hundreds of previous dives. That's why I take them all over the world with me.

"FORCE FINS have taught me to conserve energy, and they've helped me become a more efficient diver. I recommend them to all my peers and students because their advantages are obvious: They're easier to pack and carry, lower in profile and therefore less prone to disturb fragile reefs, remarkably powerful, virtually impossible to damage, and they're kind to my feet and ankles.

"But it's not just me who loves FORCE FINS; my whole family uses them. My wife Sherry wears them for distance swim training, and my kids, Brian, Lauren and Dan won't snorkel without them. I even use FORCE FINS for float tube fly fishing whenever I can find the time to slip away and relax."
