I have seen a lot of references to monofins lately and have been wondering about them. They seem a little on the expensive side for an impulse-purchase. What are the differences between the different models? What are the advantages of a monofin over a regular pair of fins? Are there things took for or to avoid? Are they a pain to lug to and from workout? Do people look at you funny like when you wear the center-mount snorkels? :eek: Any other consumer advice?

  • I use my center mount snorkle alot: warmup,cooldown,drills etc. I have never felt a "deadspace" problem. I breath just like regular swimming I just don't have to move my head to breath. Donna,I am not sure why you had a problem,I have no trouble breathing with my chest with the snorkle. I use the regular Finis snorkle.I have tried their"freestyle"snorkle and REALLY did not like it.
