If you have heavy feet, a lighter fin will help. There are other things that should be explored as well, of course.

One thing to note, if you are coming from split fins, be aware that the flutter kick that is perfect for splits is LOUSY with stiff paddle fins (Jets and slipstreams, both). You'll want to use the frog kick for best efficiency.
