Thanks Judson, Your comment is much appreciated, Bob C

Glad it was helpful Jack... Regards Bob C

Thanks Lukas, I'm waiting on a pair of XL for some dives we have planned on the weekend of 17-18 Dec. I'll do a follow-up video after those dives.. Regards Bob C

Hey Ariel, Very Cool ! I'm excited for you... Everyone that has bought them just raves about their feel and performance. Do let us know what you think after your dives... Regards Bob C

Excellent Tim, I have a pair on order, hope they get here soon. Thanks for your comments. Bob C

Thanks Much Rays ! Best Regards and Happy New Year Bob C

Excellent James, Looks like another happy SUPER owner. Thanks for your comment. Regards Bob C

Thanks Udayan for your comments. I'm very jealous of your Red Sea trip, I love to go. You can really see the extra effort in design on the Supers, as they say "proof is in the pudding". Not really sure who said that though... Regards Bob C

Thanks David, please give us your impressions when you can ! Regards Bob C

Thanks Phil O, I always enjoy hearing what piece of gear divers move from to another piece of gear and why if possible. Regards Bob C

Very Cool Thanks Mark.... it really makes my day when you folks watch the Vids and take time to write a few words ! Regards Bob C

Great to hear Skyler ! I have a set of Orange Gorillas for Ocean diving with students and a pair of Purple SWN regulars. I wear the "Grapes" when I'm working with our Adaptive Diver / Scuba Therapy program we call (The Purple Fins Project) Not a charity. I'm looking forward to diving the new "Supers" soon ! Thanks for your note. Regards Bob C

Thanks Chris for your comments and being a channel viewer. I'd stay you pretty much spot on ! Regards Bob C

Hey Michael ! Thanks for posting your comments and review. Super important that others share their experiences. Just day before yesterday, I had an instructor asking me about fins. What he was doing was to have all his students buy Tech Fins. Of course I asked why ?? He explained he's heavy into tech diving and wanted his students to learn the " _right_ " way to kick. I asked, " _what is the RIGHT way_ ", he replied " _Frog kicking_ ". Hummmm I responded. Now I like Tech style fins, I have a pair of RK3's, but I don't use them all the time. For me fins, wet/dry-suits, masks, BCDs etc. are tools. *If you can,* use accordingly. I drive a small suv, best tool for my daily general needs and uses. Dive gear really should apply the same way. - One doesn't use a college level physics calculator ( do they still use those ?) to teach kindergarteners to add & subtract... Yes I know computers/tablets. _Anyway, hanging on a boat ladder trying to get a fin off is something challenging, especially if the boat is dancing in the waves.. great example Mike !_ Sorry for the wordy reply .. Regards Bob C

| The abundance of venting in the foot pocket made removal a now non issue that is a very good point and the ONLY issue I have with the regular seawing nova (which I really like). Maybe time to drill some holes...

Hi Michael, Everyone I've spoken with that has purchased the Supers have had good things to say about them. Be Safe ! Regards Bob C

Got them nee at a discount at our local supplier for 120€ including the closed foot pocket! Now I am even happier about the great find ;)

You are correct, only the Nova has a Limited Lifetime warranty, the Super is two years. Thanks Bob C

Thanks BM ! Oh wow, well I sure hope the XL's will fit my 12 boots. I use a 6mm boot but not the hard soled ones. I also have a pair of the Akona self draining boots I'll take along and see how they work out too. Thanks for your comments, I'm sure lot's of folks will read them. Regards Bob C

@@DiversSupplyYT Let us know if you can fit bigger size boots (with hard soles) and drysuit boots please.

I have the XL Super Novas and have been diving with a size 12 Henderson soft soled 6mm boot. The sizing pin is in the middle position. For me...they are fitting perfectly.

@@michaeldolanch613 I am using thick soled boots and they fit in the XL but no room for anything bigger. It isn't the bungee length, it is the fin pocket size.

@@BurhanMuntasser I understand. I don't currently don't do any drysuit diving. Now I'm curious of an XXL...to. If they develop one..good news...we will only have to purchase half a fin.

Too Funny Keeferdog ! Love it, mind if I use that ? Regards Bob C

Hi Ahmad, I too own the Go Sports BUT when I dive the ocean I shift to my Novas Gorillas. I have both Regular Novas and Gorillas. The Sports, for me, just don't give me the thrust I'm after out there. My Regulars (Purple) leave a little to be desired so I usually go to the Orange Gorillas... I'd get the Supers and yes, I have a pair of Supers coming in.. Thanks for watching and your question. Regards Bob C

@@DiversSupplyYT thanks a lot for your advise.

The Spacers are located on the fin. If you lift the buckle there are three holes that allow you to adjust the straps giving you "more or less space" for your foot in the foot pocket.

Hey Chino, For me they are better than my regular or Gorilla Novas, I prefer the RK3 is tight places or pool work. Switch Pro's not so much. Thanks for your question. Bob C

Do you think the super novas give good power during frog kicking even in a current ? Do they feel stiffer or about the same stiffness as the gorilla? Really love my tusa hyflex switch , very easy frog kick , but need to switch to a flutter when in a current for more power :)

The Supers can be pretty stiff, the standard Novas might be a better choice. Bob C

Daniel, See the new video... your answer is included. Bob C

If you go with the Super Novas you will likely never want another fin. They are good, look kinda funny but really good fins ! If you have the choice go Super ... Bob C

@@DiversSupplyYT thanks Bob!!

@@kathrynhonggg You are Very Welcome KAT ! 🙂

There’s no such thing as gear for a beginning diver vs an experienced diver.

@@olafs7022 I would beg to differ with that statement. Bob C

There is a barefoot pocket provided by Scubapro for this fin which is pretty cool

@@Daniel_MegapteraI know that. But what I am asking is if the open heel pocket is suitable for barefoot the way the Scubapro Go Travel is, which lets go dive without boots but still have the bungee strap. I've always had issues with the heel of full foot fins tearing. SP will usually replace but that doesn't help when you're on a LB in Asia. And again, I haven't found just the blades for sale.

Yes the full foot can be bare footed... I had to fight to get the connector pins out. BC

Dale, The Super is a completely different Fin. The looks are similar but there's a lot of changes to the Nova. Good Idea for a video ! Thanks

I like them better than jets, little longer but not by much... Bob C

Positive Buoyant ... Thanks for the question. Bob C
