Ok guys, I'm super bummed. I bought a tail, and I can't seem to get it over my big butt. I was able to pull it up when I first got it a few days ago, but after a few laps in the pool, my crack hung out. I tried to swim in it again yesterday, and couldnt get it over my butt at all. It has a bunch of wrinkles down at the ankles/feet area when I put it on. It is a hybrid. I was wondering if wearing some spanks might work. I REALLY like this tail, and will be heartbroken if I can't get it to work. Here's a few not so good pics.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170604/ef39c5ea5e97989bba4acc68ad816b88.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170604/8dadab5b8fbe9d97371b68ad20ced08d.jpg

Maybe not the best idea, but ill tell you anyways, i recently did some duck tape leg doubles for tail making and i noticed that my bubble but had disappeared and became almost flat because of the tape was tight around my but, i was thinking you would wrap your but in tape to reduce its size (just the but area!) maube this could help you gdet in the tail?

Hmmm, I could try! I have some spanks on now, and I'm gonna go try again

If you look next to your monofin you see that it not fully pulled to the top and therefore some length missing.

The fabric moves back down whenever I kick out

I highly recommend using spanx (or shapewear in Australia).
My first fabric tail did the same thing after a few swims.
I actually sewed the shapewear bottoms into the waist of the tail.
They never moved down again.
I found a pair that was comfortable but not too tight, and that didn't come up over my belly button. They pretty much look like underpants, as they have no leg casing either.
I hope that helps!
I'll attach pictures if you want :)
That is a gorgeous tail by the way!!
