Catch a Wave and you're sitting on top of the World...
If you're actually going to Makapuu Beach Park, or just good old HB, CA... this is a tested design that works. Size them snug, not floppy, not painful. Best for body surfing, body boarding, swimming and light snorkeling.

Same great Churchill performance and quality!
These fins look identical to the ones I had as a kid. These are for my 11 year old daughter and I expect them to work great for bodyboarding like they did for me in the past.

Great fins!
Love these fins! Had them back in the day for my mach 7. Quintessential boogie boarding fins. Great fit, comfortable, solid all around.

A class all their own.
The fins are a little more comfortable across the top of my foot if I wear fin socks.

Size chart !!!???
The fins are fantastic, however I’m glad I ordered an XL , I’m an 11.5 wide , the size chart is incorrect.

I love them .
Fantastic. Love them. I wouldn’t buy a different kind for swimming or open water swimming, wave swimming or body boarding.. . I wish the standard color they made these in were not Yum Yum yellow 🦈 on the tips.. I saw they have an orange and blue but I already bought these and I think orange was a little more expensive… whatever price you want to charge and I know Churchills have been making them pretty much the same a long time ago.. but I hate wearing yellow in the ocean water .. it’s proven color to attract fish 🐠 visually.. I don’t want to attract them .. though yes having two distinctly different shade values between the blue and yellow makes a contrast that helps identify you not as a seal 🦭🤓

Work great, travel well, but very stiff
For years I had another pair of the same brand, which is why i went with these new ones. The previous ones worked and felt great, but after about 10 years eventually wore away and broke at the back strap part of one of them. Now those I bought at a department store by the beach. They didn't carry them anymore so I decided to look on Amazon. Here they were, same brand same style, but the previous ones were black. Anyway, these ones work great...but they're very, very stiff, compared to the previous ones. Even over a couple years, they still don't feel "worn in." They're just as stiff as the day I got them. Maybe they made them like that to prevent wear/tear. But as far as function, they do work very well. They pack well for travel too!

STILL So glad I bought these...
I've only used these fins 3 times but, so far so good! I bought a sz small, for a sz 7 foot. They're a little snug but I'm hoping the rubber relaxes after I use them a bit more. They're well built and will probably be the last pair I ever buy. They definitely help get and stay out on the big stuff! Super stoked! REVIEW UPDATE: I still love these fins, 4 years later! They show a lot of wear but still have a lot left. I make sure to rinse the saltwater off after every use. They're stiff enough to help propel into all the big waves I've come across. Now I'm looking for a 2nd pair of fins from another brand with a little more flexibility to help with a sore ankle!
