Selecting The Right Pair Of POD Swim Fins
When choosing a pair of body surfing fins, POD Ware highly recommends that "Comfort" and "Fit" be the number one most important factor.
The second should be "Performance," and the third should be "Price." If you have Comfort and Performance, it is worth the price you pay.

POD Fins - PF3 Evolution
Asymmetric surfing fins are the most excellent performance available for bodysurfing fins.
PF3s have been proven to be the world's first asymmetric swim fins with a closer balance than symmetric swim fins. This, in turn, reduces the load across the feet, ankles, and knees. PF3s have an asymmetric foot pocket with a foot size to blade length ratio, unique Splay Rails®, deep channels, flexible vertical rails, and blade.
These attributes provide a powerful kick with directed thrust, balance, speed, control, and tremendous wavehold stability. The extended foot pocket offers versatile fittings, and the drainage design guarantees fast water and sand release.
