Fins – It allows you to move in the water with higher efficiency and minimum effort. Make sure that your foot fits into the foot pocket of the fins comfortably without your toes touching.

Additionally, this equipment also holds your tank. While choosing the appropriate BCD, you should prioritise fit and comfort as the selection criteria.
