After spending a solid 10 minutes bouncing around during a night dive while another diver tried to get her fin straps off, I was even more happy to have spring straps. Just snap them off the heel and one over each arm, and up I go. I have the OMS Slipstreams with OMS springs, and my dad retrofitted his Mares Quattro fins with apollo c-series fin straps. They make diving off boats so much better, in and out of the water in no time. Makes me wonder why I put up with my dacor black tiger with abs buckles for so long.
Oh, and when the sand gets in those buckles you are SOL. With the spring straps you just wash it off, way better if you dive on sandy beaches.
