its your feet and technique more than anything else. but a few little things that may help...id say try moving you're beaters closer to the bass head. and try messing around with the distance between the 2 pedals, some people like them set pretty far apart and others like them closer together. it's all just personal preference, trial and error.

Set your spring tension tight, you cant expect the pedals to keep up with your feet if the spring tension is set to full on floppyness.

Other than that just make sure your pedals are set up in the most comfortable position for you, when you are completely comfortable and relaxed your body can move faster.
