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.

I think they are helpful for improving the kick. When I first used them I learned to relax my legs more or I would soon suffer cramp.
On the other hand, they do offer enormously greater propulsion. If I could wear them in competitions etc I would and I'ld have a very different stroke. I can't so I limit my use.
