Hi Holdown and Hi everybody,
I'm Natalia Bonfanti from C4. The Mustang footpoket changed in September 2007. The footpoket top part became bigger than the old one. In Spring 2007 we changed the material hardness ( from 68 Sh to 60 Sh). So the new footpoket is softer and more comfortable than the old one.

 It would be great if you could send us some free samples, so we can report our field-tested impressions on the new fins  More seriously, here's the question: Is this newer footpocket the same mounted on the Wahoo fins? I read the same description about this one: softer material and a bit more room on top of the footpocket. Same? .. ,, PS: today it's holdown's birthday!!! (free samples anyone?)

Great to see you here indeed
 Seeing that you are, can you tell me if the new amber Wahoo fins are still in production?

Hi Pastor,
I'm sorry but at the moment we don't have any dealer in UK... However you can find all the sales info on our website. I hope that this may help you

One last (i promise) doubt:
What do you think that will be stiffer/harder to paddle: My actual Gara 3000 or the C4 (25 or 30 blades)? Thank you, Filipe Messias.

This is not the right way for your choise. To give you a good answer I need to know something more about you:
a) How tall are you and what do you weigh? b) If are you an experienced diver? c) For which type of dive do you use them ( apnea, spearfishing, snorkeling ecc) ? d) How deep are you going?

Hi Andrea,
I suggest you to take: - hardness 25 = if you have a slow movement - hardness 30 = if you have an energetic movement About the model, what were you thinking about? Ciao, Natalia

Why not a carbon blade?
To have the best performance, I suggest you to take a carbon blade. In this case, see that you need a good apnea performance, why not Mustang 80 ? Ciao, Natalia

Hello Natalia.
It would be nice if you give me some advice, too. Male 1,85 m 73 kg Apnea Constant Weight down to 25m until now (more to come *g*) broad, quite slow kick (I think) prefer soft blades (cross-checked Gara 3000 LD and Gara 2000) Wanted: Carbon fins

Hi Dennis,
I suggest you to try Fuego VGR 25. This is a softer blade, but not so much. See your weight and tallness, this would be great. For Andrea: Wahoo fin is a great fin, the brown color would be the right hardness for you. But I cannot say that Wahoo fin is the right choise for Apnea, see that you would like to improve yourself to 35 mt. Ciao, Natalia
