[Freedive WI]

Freediving fins are great for scuba diving in warm water. Many of the dive guides that I have dove with use them down there. They become very helpful in a place like Cozumel, where the currents are so strong.

I would advise on a cheaper pair of plastic freedive fins if your going to use them for scuba diving. I have used my Sporasub Pure's for scuba, but they are much more fragile than the plastic ones. I currently use Picasso Black-teams for Scuba diving and C4's for freediving. I used my Picasso's for freediving for many years- until I finally dropped the cash on some decent carbon fiber fins. They worked out very well for both.

The Cruise's are a good fin as well, and also a few inches shorter than most freedivng fins. I use them for Underwater Hockey and teaching scuba in the pool.
