4 Types of Swim Fins Explained - Snorkeling vs Scuba Diving vs Freediving

How about the short fins, is it use for snorkeling and diving?

you answered my question. thanks.

Finally i found a useful video. Thank you

Would you use diving fins for snorkeling? I don't want to buy three or four pairs of fins when i can use one pair for more than one thing.

Anybody knows whats the difference between snorkeling fins and swimming fins in the pool? Can I use snorkeling fins in the pool and for snorkeling?

I really like, and use the smaller snorkeling fins. They are so easy to use and you can still use them for shallow dives very easily

Thank you so much!! 🏆

I want to know how to use monofins...

Yes I do like this video !! Thank you for getting to the point right away without a drawn out long intro.... Also thank you for your time and information. Got a much better idea about flippers so now, off to the ocean !!! God bless and all the rest 😀🌞

Nice info, thanks 🙏

To save money get yourself good fiber freediving fins and you can scuba dive with them no problem unless you dive in tighter spaces where maneuverability is key

Splits?

No Monofins? I'm Interested in finding out about the Monofin, or Mermaid fin, What can I say I like Mermaids.

full blade snorkel is best for long distance swimming

You should try DMC fins, they are a silicon type body surf style fin but also great for snorkeling and freediving. Super soft comy and heaps of propulsion

Thanks man.

Yeah yeah, you can wear your booties, but can you shake you booty. That is more the question here.

Thank you . Very short and talking well.
Just question my foot size is 11.5 and fin sizes are 10-11 . I want those fin for snorkeling they are look like to your last fin in video .
Can i order them or not ?

Nice fins

Nice video bro, I'm beginer in this world of divers and I have a cuestion: What do you think about the Cressi Rondine Palau fins? My brother gave me that fins as a birthday gift and my diving instructor is always telling me the worse things about cressi (I only want another opinion of that company)

Great video! I have longer fins for freediving, but just bought and tried out a pair of Cressi Sprint fins. I love them and they will be my go to fins when I am in 30 ft or less of water.

I would take a long fin with open heep (I doubt it exists).
I know for freediving you would want less drag and weight, but in cold water or in a rocky beach it is very useful. Besides I don't plan to dive so deep so I can trade some time underwater with other needs

I want to buy scuba diving fins how many cm that pins pls.. reply thanks

Explained Just brilliant.
4 types to different duties

After i broke my cheap starter Fin, i got a Beauchat 50. Now i can dive to 10m easily.

I plan to make a short trip to the Amalfi coast in one week. I will only go with cabin baggage and considered to buy short fins.
It was just a bit weird that you mention at the full size snorkle fins that no additional gear is needed which makes traveling easier while at the short fins which actually would be 'the choice' for traveling the need for boots is totally fine...
Reading the reviews of the short fins I guess I change my mind and go w/o fins.
Btw. I use fins simliar to the Scuba fins you showed for snorkling for almost 30years. It's not hard to adjust the swim style that the fins don't get (significant) out of the water. For faster movement on the surface I use the arms crawling. Of course under water the trust comes only from the fins. But I can transport those fins only in my full size suitcase - diagonally.
Hopefully my cold will be fully cured by then and I will be able to dive.

Freediving fins (although it is a pain to walk up to the diving board in them)

Do I get booties off amazon

so spear fishing freedive?

Thanks for this presentation. I uses Mares long one meter hunting fins and do five kilometer lake crossings daily in the summer in Switzerland and also circa 17 kilometer rivers swims in a strong current (so this helps shorten the distance swum) at the confluence of the Arve and Rhone rivers in Geneva. I love long fins for the additional forwards propulsion and feeling of safety they confer- I often swim alone so it important to feel strong in the water and move as fat as possible. I swim with a Baywatch type off float on a string behind me. I also do ocean swims in Thailand. These fins are so powerful that twice I have caught large carpe fish in my hands as unbelievable as this may sound and boy did they give me a perspired look.

Full snorkel

4th 👌

Free diving
It's so useful

Perfect explanation - just what I needed to select my first pair ;)

Just have a question cuz im planing to buy fins but dont know what are the softest and what are the hardest to move your legs with PLEASE NOTICE

The small travelfins are still a huge upgrade from no fins at all, right? Been snorkeling without fins all the time, and it wasn't too bad... but holding the camera steady didn't work

full blade snorkeling fins is my type

Brand,subea,style,short snorkeling fins

Very informative!

Another great vid! Thank you.

tq sir

I have a pair of Cressi free diving fines. They are great for snorkeling here in Puerto Vallarta, where you can swim your way from a current fairly quickly. Good for kip diving for exploring around rocks where fish hand out at.

Is it okey to spear fishing sing the third fins?

best name and getting the right one first

Tq

Your a life saver! Thanks

Hi, do Americans ( in the U.S.) call them swim fins or flippers? It's more than an hour for looking an correct answer !

I got a pair of the short blade fins to take to the maldives. First time snorkeling and they were definitely a great starter and travel fin. Am looking to get some full blade snorkel fins in the future

This video answered my question. Thank you so much!!! I now know that full blade snorkel fins are what to look for, by name!!! Awesome video!!! Thanks again! Happy diving 🥰

thanks for the great video! Quick question, it seems Caravellle is no longer being made. Is there a new line of product from AquaLung that is replacing the Caravellle? Maybe Wind or Express? Thanks!!
