I come from sprinting..a tip I would give for the backside kick you mention is to practice a drill we use for strengthening backside mechanics which is scissors or straight leg sprinting pushing from the toe area and engaging hamstrings and glutes (and some core in the mix). Start slow and speed up over a 30-50m distance.
Excellent video analysis. Thanks for this important tip. I was shocked to see how much angle I had, especially during the back kick. You said it right there! Will definitely pay attention to press my big toes.
ehehehe...thanks man!!! many people got surprise after watching at themself... first step into correction is to know where problem is...second step is... correcting it!! ;-) have fun and dive safe!!
As a life long diver/spearfisher, long fins apeared late in my life, from the standard short/medium rubber fins of the 1970's upgraded to a bit longer but wider and stiffer fin, leg muscles were up to a wider fin, now you probably get the same trust with a longer fin. Cadence and lengh of stoke quite dif
hi man!! using long fins is bit different then short ones.... technique is the same but efforts, cadence and micro details are very different. in general i suggest long-soft fins for free diving while for spearfishing i suggest little harder since we carry more leads on the belt... but is more about personal taste! dive safe and keep having fun dude.

oh yes man, this is a good tip. controlling the toe helps a lot on keeping blades parallel and efficient! :-) thanks for commenting.
