I have a pretty good kick in freestyle but would like to improve on it. I devote about 30% of every session to kick work with fins. I would like to hear fin recommendations - specifically: long, medium or short? what brand? fins that float or not?
I feel the fins greatly improve my ankle flexibility and kicking technique.
The ones I have are shorter - the Speedo training fins, I believe. I like them and haven't noticed any difference in my body alignment when I use them. I could see how longer ones would though.
Does anyone have any experience with breaststroke fins? I'd really like to get some to try out, but my size is on back order (everywhere!) until fall. My feet tend to be a bit lazy when I kick out and I wondered if the added resistance would help fix my positioning.
