Tech fin comparison head to head OMS Slipstream vs Apeks RK3 HD

Episode 5, the head to head comparison of the OMS Slipstream vs RK3 HD fins. Down and dirty of it, the Apeks out perform the OMS fins hands down, less expensive, more propulsion, less effort, proper hardware standard equipment. OMS did have better small maneuvering and back kick characteristics. OMS comes in far more color variants for gear matching and personalized look. Either fin makes for a great tech fin and would not shy away from purchasing either. However for comparison sakes. The RK3 HD takes the win in this bout.
