Pictures of all types of monofins needed

[AniaR]

Hey all, I am doing a really elaborate section in my book about monofins, and monofin safety.

In order to illustrate my points I need some photos of monofins. Due to copyright I can't just pull an image off the internet.

I am wondering if ya'll would mind taking photos of your not-modified monofins? Any and all I am trying to get.

Just a landscape oriented photo, one of the front, one of the back. I will credit you in my book for taking the photo.

The photos will be used for me to label the differences and the safety features.

You can photo dump here (they dont have to be giant photos, because they'll be scaled down) or send them to my FB fan page (https://www.facebook.com/RainaMermaid/). Please label what type of monofin it is.

Thank you for your help!

Don't mention it! [emoji4]

I'm planning to get a Finis Foil as my pool are happy for me to use that during normal pool times, so I can add photos of that when I get it (if nobody else does first!)

Finis Rapid. I forgot how big this thing is.

Tapatalk isn't letting me upload these correctly at any size, so if you need them not from my Tumblr, I can email you instead.

My Finis Trainer 1. I hope the photos are okay, I just got back from a swim. I don't think too many people own the trainer, but I love it.

Well, I can post a picture of my Finis Competitor (uncut ;) ) along with my MatMas Mascotte, but not before Friday, if that's soon enough...

[AniaR]

yup that's great Merman Oliver, thank you.

Here are the pics of my Mascotte, my Competitor and a Finis Aquarius (my local dive shop let me borrow it for the photo. Thanks! :) ).

My Dol-fin. I had to modify the straps because the adjustable clip broke, so they are glued in place. Also, it's been through two owners so it's seen some things.

I love this fin so much.

Thanks!!! Great stuff

Monofin makers need to get more creative with the names! Between this fin, the one i posted earlier, and the hydrofoil style DOLfin, that's three with dolphin pun names. [emoji3]

[AniaR]

Thanks everyone, look for your name and pictures in my new book!!!

[Mermaid Salty]

This thread is fintastic. It's the only place I've been able to find the actual sizing of a competitor! I don't suppose anyone has a Finis trainer and competitor they could post a comparison picture of?

You don't happen to know if the original seller is still in business do you? The guy's site looks very early-2000's maybe-not-very-kept-up but I really want one.

EDIT: yikes this is an old thread lol sorry for the necro!

[AniaR]

yeah I already published ;)

[Mermaid Wesley]

yeah I already published ;)

I saw the dol-fin and got excited lol
