Your kicking style should influence the fins you choose. 🦶🌊
It’s not simply about being strong = using stiff fins. Your technique, kick amplitude, cadence and ankle flexibility all affect how efficiently you load the blade.
🦵 Knee-dominant / overbending → Medium
✅ Good hip drive + straight-leg technique → Soft
💪 Powerful + knee-dominant kick → Medium–Hard
⚡️ Small + fast kicks → Soft
↕️ Large + slow kicks → Hard
🦶 Poor ankle flexibility → More angled foot pocket
The goal is not to use the stiffest fins possible. It’s to find a blade that works with your mechanics while keeping your movement efficient and reducing unnecessary effort.
Your technique chooses your fins — not your ego. 🤿
