Hey everyone
I started swimming this Sept. I bought a pair of Kiefer silicone training fins and I think I like them ( they are very comfortable). Most of the people at the pool I swim with are using the speedo optimus training fins. So what ones are better? Or does it matter?
I have trouble with just plain old kicking so I thought the shorter ones might help me as I would still have to do some work.
I am confused. Can someone help me?

I got to try out zura foam fins at the oak harbor meet warmups yesterday, I'm not sure if those are the same as the alpha fins (my flash player isn't working at the moment, so I can't visit that site).
I like them but $40 seems like a lot for foam fins when you can get real rubber fins for less. Maybe the fins' bouyancy has some benefit in training for a different body position.
