The OP has ankle issues, plain and simple, splits are going to be easier on the ankle than paddle fins like you have... |
The fog kick is easier on the ankles too, espcially with paddle fins |
I'm not so sure about that... I would say they are similar in terms of ankle movement... the impact on flutter style kicking is because you are putting stress on the ankle to bend it past where it normally sits - you don't really use your ankle for much up/down movement... in the frog kick, you use your ankles for propulsion more than with the flutter kick - with one you are putting stress on the joint, with the other, you are really using the joint...
it goes both ways...
