I know they just test marketed all these various fins but I still have a question. Whenever I use fins I get bad leg craps and pain in the front/side of my shins and foot pain. Has anyone ever experienced this? And tried a different fin? a shorter one. Mine seem to be a medium lenght. Any recommendations?

I used red zoomers up until about my early 30s. They turned my feet into hamburger, so I went to blue. They were more comfortable, but the only thing that got of the blisters was neoprene socks (the Speedos are my favorite). I still have the blue ones but rely on my Z2s more these days.
As for cramps, the only time I get them is if I go from a pull set directly into sprint free, but some of my students do. All I can say there is to stretch your legs and arches before and during practice.
Wish I could be of more help.
