Long fins, free to a good home

Pair of very long fins, as used by continental cave divers. Foot pockets large.
Collect from Dales ideally (easiest for me is the NPC hostel at Green Close, Clapham) but we may be able to arrange caver post.

I'd like these as I have a pair of these for free diving (shoe type ones) which are to small for me unless I wear very thin wetsocks. If they can be brought down to Mendip for the CDG training camp this weekend then I'd be grateful. I have worn a pair like these for cave diving in France but never the UK - I imagine I could really live up to my (unjust) silt monster reputation if i did.

All yours mate; glad they'll be going to a fellow CDG member. I'll see if anyone's going down to the Training Camp who might be able top pick them up beforehand.
You'll probably need to replace the fin straps. These fins do tend to have overly small foot pockets but this pair has been altered to fit my size 10 drysuit boots, so you should be OK.

(I also only used these in overseas sumps but I have so many projects on the go in the Dales I never seem tro have time for away trips.)
 
We have a Somerset Section member (also an NPC member) who has kindly offered to collect the fins from Green Close the weekend after the one coming. So you should have them the week(end) after that.
