Those are really exciting pictures, buddy.

I noticed your flippers have a split down the middle - first time I've seen one of those. Any special advantage with that?

Cheers - JJ

Do you encounter Caulerpa taxifolia often when you dive? This is a big problem and I am very concerned. I don't think most people know just how serious this problem is.

It is really a matter of personnal choice, split fins are generally softer and offer a better guidance during the kick, those are very popular among the US and UK divers, but not so often in France
mine are Scubapro Twin Jet , I use those for quiet a lot time and I love them

Sorry to hear that. I noticed you said you like to dive in the Med. There is a slug that eats the taxifolia but it only lives in warmer water and not in the colder water of the Med. Hopefully we will figure something out.
