Just got a bunch of fin fun!

[AniaR]

Last week I ordered a bunch of tails from finfun. I ordered 8 tails, in two sizes, and 4 colours. They got here within a week, the colors looks way better than the pics online, and they gave us a free monofin upgrade so we now have two inserts for every monofin. They also gave us a bulk order discount. I am literally so impressed! We will be using these to create teen and adult mermaid photoshoots. We'll be doing kids ones too but we'll be making our own kids tails :)

So excited! these new monofins are huge! Charlie was excited too

It came to just under 1200 Canadian (and we cost 20% more than USD right now) and that includes shipping. customs fees were 40$

[AniaR]

I decided to try one on. Maaan so light! so easy! I tried on their largest size. the tail itself was actually loose on me, but the monofin was hard to get on. Just the ankle area. (I'm a size 9) could barely get my feet through to get it on which is too bad. So I say their monofins are best up to size 8. (unless they change the foot holes to be wider)

[MerEmma]

SO awesome! Congrats! I know you've been wanting to get a bunch of fabric tails for a while now, and it looks like it turned out great. :D

[Mermaid Jaffa]

Nice haul! Looks like Sean chose his fave color!

[AniaR]

do you know how bad I want to photograph him in one and he so wont do it hahaha. but his feet wouldn't fit anyway

[Onyx Jewel Catfish]

Size 9us and they are easier to get on when wet! Awesome! you are gonna make some peoples dreams come to life for sure! Not as aswesome as your Merbellas though!

[AniaR]

yeah I'm size 9 and could barely get it on. his feet are way bigger than mine

[SeaMonkey]

[Mer-Crazy]

i like how they made the scales look 3d. luv the green n the red. are you selling these?

you cant switch out the monofin?

[AniaR]

check out their website.

[Mermaid Jaffa]

Is Sean a deep sleeper?;)

[Sherielle]

This is awesome, Raina!
Though I must say you look sort of 'wrong' in any tail color other than orange/gold, lol.

[Ariel-Starfish]

They look so awsome! I secretly always wanted one, now I'm tail-less for a long time. But the extra tax fees worries me :???:

[malinghi]

Those tails are really nice. And I'm super excited for all the cool stuff you can do now that you have all those extra tails kids can use.

[AniaR]

These will be just for teens and adults. We are making kids tails :) well... Mimi is lol

[malinghi]

That's even cooler.

[Talia]

Blue suits you, Raina :)

[AniaR]

I look so weird in not orange! lol.

[ShyMer]

I look forward to seeing what you guys do with them. It's so exciting!

[Merley]

How much were the 8 tails? Curious how much the discount was.

[AniaR]

It came to just under 1200 Canadian (and we cost 20% more than USD right now) and that includes shipping. customs fees were 40$

;) That's after the discount. I'm not sure if I should say how much it was because they may determine it based on a case by case thing... and maybe they don't always offer it lol. So I'll just say if you order in bulk ask if they will offer you a discount. It's pretty standard with a lot of things that the more you buy the more you save.

[Sabrina the Selkie]

They look so fantastic! *squee*

[Cordelia]

That's awesome! I showed my bf the picture of Charlie. He saw all the tails and said: Somebody has a problem. Hah! He thought they were all just for you!

[Talia]

are the skins n mono sold separately? i looked at the site but wasnt sure

you cant switch out the monofin?

You can buy skins without monofins, and monofins without skins too. Or the whole package, of course.
Also, the Magictail monofins fit inside the FinFun skins.

[Silva]

Haha,you got three of my favourite colours! You look great in blue!

[MerMel]

Wow thats a lot of tail! :)

I just got my second tail skin and tankini set from them in Rio Red.<3

The thin neoprene that they use for the foot pockets does stretch out some after the first couple uses. The holes are only 3 inches long for the pockets but can stretch another two or so inches up to a womens size 10 at the very max. It is easiest on land to slide in one foot at a time, with one finger guiding the heel and another finger holding the middle part between holes to pull it up.

It might be a safe call to hold off on using the clear lexan part of the monofins so it doesn't break while a customer is using it. The black polycarbonate fins are supposed to replace them since they are much more durable and resilant than the preassembled lexan fins.

[Princess Pearl]

Did they come with the black inserts or the clear ones?

[AniaR]

both. a set of both for each tail.

[Princess Pearl]

Nice!

[Silva]

The black polycarbonate fins are supposed to replace them since they are much more durable and resilant than the preassembled lexan fins.
I'm pretty sure the new inserts are rubber. Stupid question: is polycarbonate rubber? :$

[AniaR]

I'm really not sure they feel like plastic to me. And not that flexible.

[Princess Pearl]

Polycarbonate is another name for lexan.

[Silva]

hmm... does that mean that it's the same thing, but a stronger lexan? I recall somewhere on the fourm someone said it was rubber.

I got the Malibu Pink tail =D they are comfy as, but, not the greatest swimming with waves =D
Bring on calmer water!!

[MerMel]

Did they come with the black inserts or the clear ones?

I think the warehouse still has a few pallets worth of preassembled monofins that were made before the new polypropylene replacements were released into mass production, hence the free upgrade that every monofin purchase gets till the lexan ones are gone.



I'm pretty sure the new inserts are rubber. Stupid question: is polycarbonate rubber? :$

oh yeah meant to say polypropylene instead of polycarbonate. they are made using recycled plastics. http://www.finfunmermaid.com/monofin-insert

[AniaR]

yeah it def feels like plastic.

[shimmygoddess]

These tails photograph SO nicely. I got the Pink and Blue ones for my daughter last year and the pics came out awesome!!
