This may seem like a silly question but I have to ask. We just finished a 12 day diving trip and finally watched the videos (if I knew how to convert the dvd's, I would post a clip)
I have done a lot of snorkle/skin diving. I used a pair of solid free frog fins for a good 12 - 15 years. They served me well. When we went on this trip we bought all new gear and I got a new pair of split fins.
While watching the videos, I realized my kicking style was different. While using the split fin, I bent my knee much more while kicking. With my free frogs, my leg was much straighter.
Should there be a difference or was I potentially over compensating for the less resistance of the split fin?
