I recently switched from a semi dry suit to a dry suit and in the end I also had to change my fins because they did not fit properly and had problems with floaty feet...
In this process I switched form a pair of Cressi Frog to a pair Jet Fins...
First I had problems with my dry suit but after 10 dives things are going a little bit better but Jet Fins were used for 7 dives only and I still haven't mastered them...
I feel like I got stone blocks instead of fins and adding the fact that I am still a little bit insecure with my dry suit most of the time I end up flutter kicking and very very tired while still underwater...
I suspect that not being totally relaxed and confident make this experience even worse and that maybe even the DMs leading the dives are going too fast...
Take also into consideration that I am not out of shape and swimm regularly twice a week...
Bottom line...
Does anybody got any good tips to help me master these fins ???
Got any good exercise I can do while on dry land to master the art of frog kick and maybe use the muscles I wasn't using when I was diving with Cressi Frog fins ???
