Your feet are too big for Axis Longboards? They're 2 inches longer than anything else, you might never be able to play heel-toe if this is true!

Maybe try this technique, it's what I primarily use.

the "heel-toe" technique is more of a "toe-toe" technique. Both hits are with your toes, your heel is down for the first and up for the second.

oh, ok quikstang thanks for the better description I thought you had to play with your heels and your toes.
And to answer all of your questions I wear size 13 shoes
But still, what is the best kind of pedal to get?
I also wear size 13 shoes, and I haven't had any problem with any of the double pedals I've tested. However, I play heel up. That may be the difference.
There have been a couple of other threads about double pedals recently, and what you really need to do is get to a local shop that has a few doubles you can test out, to see what feels the best for YOU. Everyone here will be recommending their own favorite pedal, but they're all very different and you need to get a feel for what works for you and your style of playing.

He exagerrates it a bit. I come down with my foot as one unit and then add the extra toe in between. It's a mix between the "constant release" version and the "heel toe" version. To be honest, I don't play doubles often at all, especially not for speed. I just play singles faster.
