After 38 years in jet fins, I have finally put them on a high shelf. I much prefer my twin speed splits.

I could have told you that and I don't even have a Crystal Ball Just a Reed's Rod! I think its a Caribbean Vs Caribbean thing! I guess the older you get you need to take it easy on the old legs! I would recommend splits for the infirm!

interesting concept
It's nothing more than an update of the "Aqueon", developed in the early 1970s. The Aqueon never really caught on, despite the testimonials of a few enthusiasts from that era. See:

Right out of the News: Jarred Flybottm set a new depth record this week in Grand Cayman. He contributed the use of split fins to his new record of 1278.5 FSW on the south side of the island. “If I would have known about these split fins earlier I would have made 1500ft by now” when asked why the rest of the Free-Diving sport has resisted using these propulsion miracles he responded “There just too afraid to go that deep” he also said that “the extra weight acted like a sled pushing him further than he expected” all the way to the new record.
In a related story cave divers who don’t want to be followed into their special cave are using split fins in greater numbers! “Who needs to see in a cave? It’s dark in those places anyway and there is nothing to see!”
Think I will get me a pair of them!

I am not sold on them. I still think it is a marketing thing. Now of course I would be willing to try some out so I could make an honest decision. Maybe I will borrow a pair for a dive sometime and give them a try.
I love my splits, cramps are at a min. I will state however in a good current they are lacking.
Ace, meet me at Dutch and I will let you try em....
Sounds like a plan. Now of course there is no current in Dutch....
How about I push you???
As long as my dry suit is zipped up!
I get a little worried when a man wants to push.....LOL
