Hi everyone,
I am going to buy a pair of swimming fins this weekend.
I know that the fin itself should not be a long scuba-type, but rather small or medium the most. Is that right?
The other thing:
I read somewhere that flippers for swimmers should not have a hole on the flipper, but it should be solid. What I mean is.
This is the "solid" one:

And this has a "hole":

Which one of the two you recommend. the first one is not a good quality or at least it doesn't look like a professional thing. Just cheap rubber. I don't know if that's a factor when buying a fin or not. The second one I tried and it was fun. I would definitely buy those unless you -swimmers- says otherwise.
Thanks for the answer:applaud:

Since I work out alone I have often wondered: are the kick sets I see in posted workouts predicated on using fins? Because I cannot possibly make what seem to be typical kicking set intervals. Do you use fins on all, most or few kick sets?
Just today I bought a pair of Speedo Optimas (I think that's the name--blue and orange, split) because my old fins seemed sort of goofy-long, and zoomers seem insane. I got more foot flex out of the new ones, and they still had enough surface area to add something.
