Help! O3 drysuit - what size Jetfin copies

As per title. I have an O'Three Ri200 drysuit with size 8 boots.

I've recently acquired some Beaver Predator jetfin copies (same as Norther Diver copies I beleive) in size XL which don't fit my drysuit. No probs because they do fit with my wetsuit boots but is anyone else using the cheaper jetfin copies with O'Three size 8 boots and can confirm if the XXL will likely be OK or am I in Turtle territory?

Thanks

Graham

Dont know if this helps but I had to get XL quatro avanties to replace the size L splitfins that I had. The boots just seem a bit wider on the Ri2, which means that I have to have a pair of fins dedicated to just that suit as they will be too big with my other suits or wet boots. Oh, and mine are a size 8 as well.

I have size 8 boots on my drysuit (neoprene) and I have to use XL Northern Diver jetfin clones.

I had some XXL Beaver fins on size 8 drysuit boots - they fit OK, but I tried on some Turtles and they were a lot more comfortable.

the othree Ri comes with a thicker neoprene boot - well my R1/100 did..

I have size 10 feet and I could only use Turtles with them. My advice would be to ask to borrow others jetfins - try the XXL with your boots. The turtles might be too wide for your feet.
