How do you know what fin is right for you?

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? Katie

    I started with zoomers and was told to get fins for ankle flexibility. I can easily go under 1 minute with fins, but am nowhere near 1:30 without fins. I think you have a good idea in cutting them. My coach has me kicking with sneakers on. She is pure evil for that one!:bitching:
