Hydro Fins
By Kris from Billings, MT on 9/29/2020
Fit: TOOSMALL
They don't fit real well but I'm hoping after use they will mold to my feet and work better.

Great fun for bodysurfing and bodyboarding!
By Christopher C. from OXNARD, CA on 9/5/2020
Fit: NA
I have had the OG hydro fins decades ago and loved those.
These current ones work great in the ocean. Nice comfortable foot pocket, even for my wide feet. The ankle strap is very comfortable with the ankle bone contours. I’m size 9 and the mediums fit perfect. Good propulsion and lots of snap for quick bursts for catching waves.

Great swim fin!
By Cre from Ventura, CA on 9/3/2020
Fit: NA
I have had the original hydro fin when it came out decades ago. This version has a very comfortable foot pocket for my wide feet. The ankle strap is nice because it is shaped for the ankle bones [OPENBRK]malleoli[CLOSEBRK]. The fins works great for bodysurfing and bodyboarding. They have great flexibility for good bursts of speed for catching waves. I love them so much, I bought them for my kids!

Great Body Surfing Fin
By Tom from Thousand Oaks on 5/19/2020
Fit: NA
I used these fins last week for bodysurfing and they were great. I have a size 9 foot and I bought a size 9 to 10, and the fin fit fine. They didn't come off in the surf and I didn't get any blisters.

This is the standard bodysurfing/ocean lifeguard swim fin
By ShorebreakDave from Vero Beach, Fla. on 4/8/2020
Fit: TRUE
DaFins are used more or less worldwide and seem to outnumber all the competitors, which would include the newer DMC Repellor. The small world of bodyboarding has a number of brands/models of its own, including Hydro fins. The DaFin's outside rails help with holding onto a wave face. The foot pocket is softer rubber than the blade. Problems with sizing and heel chafing can be finessed with fin socks and/or heel pads. Tethers can be useful. Waves can sometimes expertly pluck fins from feet.
The main design problem of DaFin is probably the foot pocket holes, which don't have drains at the bottom, so shell fragments can be slow to dislodge. It is possible to cut a hole of your own. My latest pair is extra large for wearing with neoprene fin socks.

Dafins are great fins
By Eric from Santa Cruz CA on 2/22/2020
Fit: NA
Dafins are probably the best fins I've ever used, they're very light as their bulk is quite minimal and very efficient.. The blade is the right length for flutter kicking, very good for bodyboarding. Haven't done much bodysurfing with them but probably pretty good for that also although some might prefer a fin like Voit Duckfeet for that as the blades are longer. Only minor problem with Dafins might be that it's hard to extract small rocks from them once they get inside and are sticking into your feet. And make sure you use tethers, or even better - shoestrings to leash your fins because they're expensive to lose. At least at swim outlet though the price is slightly better.

Da Fin surf swim fins
By Conley from Los Angeles, California on 8/28/2018
Fit: TRUE
I have been body surfing and body boarding since 1968 and have bought and used my share of surf equipment, so I have a fair knowledge of the stuff that works. With that said, the Dafin surf fins are plain and simple OUTSTANDING in every way possible: they float/ are made of stiff Malaysian rubber which makes for a stiffer fin to help you propel in the water more efficiently/ rails on the top side of the fins to help you cut through the water even better/ they have an excellent comfy fit (maybe the best on the market)/ a good choice of colors for male and female/ many pros use them and they are the fins of choice for American Lifeguards. This is my second pair of Dafins and I won't use any other kind!

Too powerful
By Slappy from Vancouver, BC on 1/14/2018
Fit: TRUE
These fins were too powerful for my ankles and gave me Achilles issues so if you are not in the best of shape ankle wise find a less powerful fin.

Dafins
By Michael Sing Photography from Carolina Beach on 7/14/2013
Fit: TRUE
I love Dafins this is my second pair. I bought these to replace my old one because they were a bit narrow for my extremely wide 4e feet. That being said if you a extra wide foot like myself go with the size larger you wont regret it. I use these fins everyday for work. I do surf photography and frequently body surf for fun. Dafins are the most comfortable fin I've ever used and will probably never use anything else as long as they make them! I often have them on for hours at a time and never have any blisters or irritation from rubbing. Get them!!! you won't regret it!
