Looking for Flippers
#1
I am looking for a certain type of flipper for tubing. I have not seen these flippers in a few years. They are black, wide, hinged on the bottom. They boost your speed extremely. Can anyone tell me the brand, model and where to get them from. E-mail me at snymcginn@yahoo.com

[cool]A big Texas howdy to ya. Welcome to the float tubing forum.

I'm guessing that you probably had one of the Dacor hinged blade models. The good news is that they are still around, and they have some good quality fins. Some folks like the hinged blades. Others prefer a more "direct drive" fin. the Dacor website is [url "http://www.divedacor.com/fins.html"]http://www.divedacor.com/fins.html[/url]

There are lots of discount websites where fins are available at super rates. If you enter "Skin Diving Fins" in your browser, you will have more potential sites than you can get through. As long as you know the make and model you want...and the right size...you can often save up to 50% over buying through a dive shop or non-discounted web site.

If Dacor is not the one you are looking for, check Mares, TUSA, Genesis, Appolo, Cressi, or IDI. I have links to all of those, if you need help.

Next time back, tell us a little bit more about yourself...than what you included in your profile. Where do you fish? What kind of craft do you have and what kind of tackle do you prefer?

Hope this helps.
