I just picked up a set of Force Fin Pros off eBay to try. Tried them out last night in the pool and did not feel any stress on my legs, making me think they won't make me cramp in my hamstrings (my typical cramp location). Previous fins are Oceanic V16 splits.
However, I did feel slight cramping in the arch of my foot, but that might be traceable to hard soled dive booties that are a bit small and the sole is also pretty stiff. I bought a pair of booties that are a bit bigger with a much thinner sole to see if this helps (allow more toe flex).
Any suggestions on kicking techniques etc? I want to like these, as they fit in my carry on, so I can get all my dive gear into a 22" carry on bag.
Thanks!
