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

  • As to fins, I personally see no value in them, any style, any configuration. Well, as you knew I'd say, this is just narrow minded clap trap. There are a zillion uses for fins. But perhaps not for distance swimmers and would-be tris. I bet Cielo uses fins on occasion. Pretty damn good for speedwork.
