In the market for a new pair of fins? Then you won't want to miss the November issue of Scuba Diving, which is the only place you'll find the results of our 2007 Scuba Lab Fin Test. Our team of 12 test divers and five test supervisors spent a week at Capt. Don's Habitat on the island of Bonaire this summer putting 18 new fin designs to the test. We measured each fin for speed, thrust, and maneuverability and then had multiple test divers provide scores and comments on 10 crucial areas of fit, features and performance. By week's end, the team had invested 270 diver hours in morning speed, slalom and thrust tests and completed 170 afternoon ergo dives. In all, our divers generated more than 450 pages of speeds, times, scores and comments, demonstrating once again that nobody consistently collects as much data, on such a wide variety of fins, as Scuba Lab. The November issue of Scuba Diving, which goes out to subscribers Sept. 24 and is scheduled to hit newsstands on Oct. 16. Look for it at Borders, Barnes & Noble, Books a Million or at one of the more than 650 Golden Tank dive centers that carry the magazine.
