I like to swim with fins some days, I have the zoomers and some regular fins. I notice when I swim finless that I feel slow as a snail.If I have been using the fins for a couple of days. I know some swimmers that only use fins as thats the only way they have been able to learn, to them I say great what ever works for exercise but have noted to them that they should at least be able to swim finless to get out of the pool for safety if they fell into water anywhere.

It is interesting that this topic came up as I resigned myself to using fins this week for Monday's distance free workout. I get incredibly bored swimming distance free sets and find that I just can't do it without burning out my arms. With fins, I can get the sets done and still have the energy to get out of the pool. Plus it really helps with pacing. I use the regular long fins, but I am debating whether I should invest in some zoomers. I've never used zoomers, so I'm not too sure what they do in comparison to regular fins.
