Title : Probably the best value asymmetrical swim fins on the market!
Detailed Review : I originally wanted to get a pair of classic Churchill Makapuu fins. However the ‘original’ version of these fins are very difficult to get a hold of in the right size and the ‘new’ version are known to be poorer quality. After a bit of hunting around I came across the new Stealth S3 fins and they looked perfect. An added bonus was the S3 come in a classic blue/gold Ryan Hardy signature model, or a contemporary black/purple Nick Gornall signature model. Given that my current board is a VS Ryan Hardy model and I was looking for a classic Makapuu style, I decided that the blue/gold would be the best pick! Overall I have been very happy with these fins after using them for the past few months in a variety of conditions and waves. They offer plenty of speed, are a good shape from drop knee (the tip is maybe a little too long for backhand though), are comfortable, offer excellent drainage and come in two awesome versions. My friend lost his S2 fins recently and bought a pair of blue/gold S3 fins after borrowing mine. He's also stoked! Great bang for buck, highly recommend!
