Rich,I have the same thing but mine are by a.b. biller and they open foot not closed.
They are great on ledges and hard bottom,but I don't wear them on small barges.(silt the bottom up and hard to swim inside structure).
I let herc83 use mine a few weeks back, the next time he was on the boat he had a pair.
I think they are 115 a pair and you can order replacement blades because they will break.

Those fins alone will add 150' to your freedive max depth. :D The carbons are good for 300.

Yeah Pipin learned that the hard way. Its good for 300' down, but back up is not guaranteed.

I don't think Pipin is dead if that's what you're saying.

No he is not, but his wife is pushing up daisies.

Quite tragic. Made for an interesting read though in Sports Illustrated.
