I tried a pair of original force fins on a trip to Mexico recently and loved them. However, I was diving with light weight boots on. Has anybody tried them with hard soled dry suit boots?

i tried them on a DUI demo and when leading the buddy pair i was in doing a navigation run doing my normal fin kick after a minute of finning i looked back and the other two were not behind me, and i had to wait almost two minutes before they caught up to me. Also i didnt get a cramp while using the forces do to that there are times that i kick so hard that i get a cramp no matter what.
thats just my experince

I believe you posted this once in another thread, right? I asked you then, but maybe not clearly enough, if the other divers who "couldn't keep up with you" were wearing tennis shoes. I find it totally unbelievable that any divers, in any sort of shape at all, wearing any other type of fins, wouldn't have left you completely in the dust in the situation you describe.
