    I've tried OG Maks, the Hubb model Maks, and the Ally Mak-copies.

    Current go-to winter setup is a used pair of Maks I got off of Ebay. The heel straps and foot pockets are looser than a new set of Maks and work pretty well w/ 5mm booties. 3mm feels better though, not as tight.

    Current go-to summer fins are one Hubb Mak and one OG Mak. I like the Hubbs but the foam padding at the top of the foot pocket tends to deteriorate over time. The one Hubb I still use hasn't fallen apart as much as it's mate. I've lost 2 other OG Maks so this mismatched pair is just what's left over, ha.

    The Ally fins weren't comfortable for me at all. I have a pair of Churchill Slashers I am going to try this summer. So far they seem more snug that OG Maks.

    Churchill was my favorite until I bought MS vipers there lighter and have more power and if you ride dk and prone like me they are perfect

    SOAR LE8 are magic for me. as far as flippers, i'm not a ****-dragger, but the voit duckfeet are great bodysurfing fins.

    2nd this. Kicks are the best all-around fin. They're light, powerful, they float, and they're great for prone or dk. They are also apparently indestructible.
