This custom made dolphin tail had arrived about a year ago --- Thanks, Matt at Merrowfins --- but I hadn't had a nice iPhone camera with good quality to take video. So, here's my chance to say hi actually in the tail. How does it look? Still haven't had a chance to swim with it yet. I know there are wrinkles. With no one to help me get into the tail, it's tricky to slide my feet all the way into the foot cups (or whatever they're called).
Notice the grey underside to mimic the way a dolphin has both underside and dorsal colors. I'd like some way of having a large dorsal fin made for my chest.

Did you decide to not get the slits?

Actually, they're on the tail. Due to a mixup, they are on the dorsal side (second photo) instead of the ventral (first photo). Now that I'm starting to earn some money again, I'd like to have Matt fix it. It would look fantastic, as the slits look well sculpted. The darker paint on the dorsal side looks like it should redone to cover more of that side.

Thanks it's a merrowfins tail. Glad it looks so real : ) the material is full silicone, so it feels rubbery. I went to a makeup store to identify which colors best matched my skin color.

Are the slits actually open? Or are they sculpted closed?

They're sculpted closed.
