Dacor Tiger Fins
|
|
The Dacor Tiger is an excellent set of Fins! The Tiger incorporates the technology of the Mares Volo Fins in an effort to
keep up with the pioneers of fin technology. These fins are very similar to the Mares variety, the only major difference is that the Dacor Tigers are available
in 3 colors, and are buoyant in salt water.
All in All the Dacor Tiger Fins are the second best all around fins I have tried. Second only to the Mares Volo. If you want superior performance in stability,
power vs. stress, and comfort then the Dacor Tiger fins are for you! If the prices are similar and you don't have a color preference then buy the Mares, they are the ones who should get the sale!

Mares Volo Fins
|
|
The Mares Volo is an excellent choice for people who like to swim FAST! The Volo incorporates
the use of a pivoting blade to make your motion easier and more efficient in the water. The efficiency is accomplished by the design of the fin forcing more water
behind you; lessoning the effort required to propel yourself.
Mares has added a locking system to the now standard skiing type adjustable bindings. Which
wouldn 't be used except in extreme situations, but it's nice to know it's there just in case.
All in All the Mares Volo Fins are the absolute best all around fins I have tried. (and now own) If you want superior performance in stability,
power vs. stress, and comfort then the Mares Volo fins are for you!
