I've just lost a Tech2 fin that was attached to the velcro style fin savers. Switched to the deluxe ones. When it's really cold and you've got 4-5mm gloves on the string is too tricky.

Thanks for the review!🤙🤙 Thanks for letting me know that special knot. My shoe laces would come off so I had to keep putting it on. I have a pretty big fins so I could use the fin tethers.

@@ConnorLumsden I've gotten hubboard fins. They are the right size for me as they are a bit more narrow. But thanks for the tip!
I personally like the to use the deluxe type because the shoe lace and other styles of fin tethers shoe lace/velcro type of tether came off on a big day after the lip landed on my fins and both fins came off. Luckily it didn’t get tangled while I was being held underwater that day, I would have had to untangle it while being held under. That is why I prefer the deluxe type of tether and so far so good :) Aloha from HI 🤙🏾

Shoe laces every day of the week! I’m not ashamed to say it’s all about style, extra bulk around the ankle destroys the beauty of a crossed legged spin... same goes for socks or booties... I cant explain it, but the heel needs to be exposed for maximum style points. 😌 I did ‘ knot’ know about that quick release knot trick! Radicalisational stuff brother! 🤙🏽 yeeew!

Thanks been looking on a practical and easy solution on how to hold my fins, because it keeps falling off my boot and my open hell foot pocket seems to be fit but the straps keeps on sliding glad I have this shoe lace approach. trying it next time when I have a chance...

I'm surprised you didn't mention a major difference - with the shoelace the fins will still come off your foot but dangle around. The fin savers on the other hand are designed so your fins don't come off your foot in the first place. For this reason, I think the fin savers are more likely to result in ankle injuries.

I prefer flat and wide shoe laces - less chafe. two loops around the ankle and a reef knot will make sure that it will never slip off. Untying can be tricky though when the hands are cold. Lost about 8 fins with the velcro fin savers, never tried the deluxe.

the deluxe style holds sand inside the neoprene. downside for me but it works great. thanks for the informative videos. im going to watch your close out video next looks interesting

I’ve never had that problem with the neoprene holding sand… interesting.
Thanks Iain, I’ve seen those deluxe tethers and been wondering about them. Over the years I’ve had a lot of different tether methods and It has taken many years to find something that works for me; now I have a fin brand and size that works, with a separate heel strap pad ( the same pair for 15 years!) and the leash strap style tethers ( not ideal as it takes some time and it doesn’t actually keep the fins on your feet). Although because I’ve got the correct size fins they never come off. It’s like you say, find what works for you. Can you do a video on the different hull setups around these days; I’m in the market for a new board (possibly a DK spec) and with the myriad concaves/ quad channels/parallel channels and so on, I have no idea what actually works and what’s just a gimmick ( I’m remembering the Mach 8TX and it’s dimple bottom 🤣). How do they work with prone vs drop knee and such. Thanks dude, great content as always!

Hi. That’s exactly it. Whatever works for you is the best for you. When it comes to different rails, and hulls of the boards unfortunately I can’t make that video. Currently sniper only offer a normal channel system but hopefully there is something on the way soon in our 2022 range! Will keep you up to date as I know more and you can always watch the channel for extra things I have.
Thanks for the video! I actually made something similar to those deluxe fin tethers by sewing some Velcro to an old Wetsuit I chopped up. I use a pair of symmetrical Custom-X fins, and the main benefit I have found is that the tethers prevent chafing around the ankles. However, I may look into buying a pair of these, mainly because they just look way cooler🤙

Yeah. I have everything custom x except for their fins, custom x board, custom x leash, and custom x fin savers, but once you switch to Churchill's (or try Limited Edition because they're the same fins in more colors) fins you'll never go back. They're great.

I'm using delux for the same reason you don't, the S size is too small and the M is a little to big, but with a 1mm neoprene sock and Delux it's fits perfect, also if it's too cold, I can do the same with a L size and use a scuba dive sock to be able to have at least 5mm neoprene, specially in this situation the delux helps a lot, but as you said, it's too difficult to change between fins, so I always buy with the fin and never remove it, even when I'm retiring the fin, because if I need it for a friend, it's better to already be there.

@Boogie Kook74, I have a wide foot and I use a pair of ML Freedom fins with a heel strap. Very comfy! I used to have a pair of Churchill Slashers, which were so comfy and suited DK well, but I left them at the beach after being chased out the water by a shark. Was so freaked out I left them in the car park along with my pants 😂
Bit it adds so much xtra drag while prone though.

Would having a swimfin setup for lightweight help with performing moves that involve leg mobility and contortion? For example, I wear neoprene socks, ankle guard, and Velcro fin tether and it feels heavy like a 1lb ankle weight compared to a no booty and shoelace combo. Or maybe I should just do more yoga and stretch 😅.
