  • This isn’t someone stealing food from the grocery store to feed their kids… But it is a topic being overblown for rich people’s benefit.

    How is it overblown? It is a real issue with law enforcement in America. People are being permitted to destroy and steal property. We need to get to the root cause of what’s going on their. It’s due to failures on multiple fronts. You can’t just say ignore it because capitalism bad. Capitalism is a founding principle of this country’s economy. You can’t play the card that these people are protesting corruption because others are enriching themselves by stealing goods. That’s not noble in any way and doesn’t help employees.


















  • I like them a lot actually. They are great for frog kicking because the transparent part flexes like a frog’s webbed feet. Used them through Dos Ojos and other cenotes without issue. I feel that the clips that hold the boot slips in place might be a potential point-of-failure. Additionally, the instructions warn that the flapped area can tear if you encounter a sharp object, which is possible in a wreck or in some of my inlet dives in NJ. They feel pretty neutral in terms of buoyancy and do not feel cheap, except for the clips on the boot slips which hold them in using compression. I also wish that the strap points were more universal, but it only works with the straps that it came with. I’ll likely try out ScubaPro Go Sport fins next, but am a little deterred by the reviews for those indicating that they have positive buoyancy. The folding fins did give me pretty good propulsion. Had to kick against current recently with them to get to the other side of a wreck and I was able to get the job done where others couldn’t, so it was a testament to their power.
