    Avoid beaver straps!

    The salvo springs kit that Niknaks does is good because it works with jet/turtle/any other black rubber fin as well as the Mares style buckles.

    Really? i would tend to disagree....

    I have found these to be unbeatable Underwater Explorers

    Yes they are "slightly" more but you get what you pay for....

    Northern Diver - Fins
    mine are these. love them. but i replaced the stupidly small diameter bolt with a 5mm one.
    Northern Diver Spring Fin Straps - Product Reviews - DIVE

    i have since then, seen a pair for sale with bigger blots like mine
    +the skinny bolt used to stop the buckle from having any chance of sliding off.
    i wouldve gotten these pair, if id seen them.
