    There are a number of reasons why I don't tend to use fins. Two reasons are pretty simple: knees and ankles. As in, fins sometimes put too much strain on my knees (which hyperextend a lot and are otherwise fragile after multiple surgeries) and after a while they hurt my ankles (which are already flexible enough). - quote from a member, but I messed it up a bit please allow patience while I figure out the methods for quoting- Most Fins create undue stress because the fins incorporate a closed foot pocket. Slim Fins www.forcefin.com/.../slim_product.htm have a patented open toe pocket and therefore don't allow the ankle to go past the normal range of motion that cause stress, cramps and strain. www.forcefin.com/.../Truth_Swim2.html I have seen a lot of people use Slims Fins as a method to increase recovery after an injury and as an aid to help in body position and workout enhancement!
