I have the Finnis Rapid, I think the Wave is basically the same thing.
I hear complaints about the foot pockets all the time but so far mine haven't
been too bad. They do slip off when swimming really fast but so far no tears.

I have heard a lot about the Foil, though. Is that a good one? Do people like
it better than the Rapid/Wave models?
Does anyone have both so we can do a side-by-side comparison? xD

I just got a rapid monofin and have used it a few times already and I don't seem to have a problems yet and hope not to have any.

The foil sizing is off... The first foil monofin I got was an XS. It was way too tight for my feet. I got the next size up (a small) and it should come soon. I look forward to actually swimming in a monofin that fits for once, and seeing how it works for me. From what I've heard, the Finis Foil is good for people with wide feet, and the Rapid/ Wave is better for people with narrower feet. I think the Rapid/ Wave has a stiffer blade though. I'll post more, once I get my foil.
