I have heard of instances where he uses swim fins instead though he advertises monofins. I cannot back this up however.

[AniaR]

I had someone contact me because he used swim fins, and glued them in backwards making the tail unusable.

[meremily]

so as Aniar told it, it looks like he is using them . i look at video of his tails swimming and i think they swim well. so should i just put the same finis swim fins in my silicone tail or make the monofin im triing to make?5553

[meremily]

i also asked on anther thread if i did put the fin at the right place? am i supposed to have the lexan start after my heals?

[Blondie]

I don't think those are swimfins. They don't have foot pocket, just a strap. I mean who knows he might. Those look like foot pockets fused into a silicone fluke for his silicone tails.

[meremily]

well the second photo of the swim fin i have take on his facebook mertailor page. and if you look at both images they are the same colors so...

[Mermaid Fenicia]

It looks like he cut off the heel part, so only straps remain. On his FB he also wrote that as he couldn't get any monofins from Finis, he'll be using those swimfins instead

[Lyna]

mine appears to be a finis as advertised. i can't see in, but feels the same, straps the same, and the outline in the fluke (very visible) and grooves of the fin in said fluke are the same as the finis monofin's i'm familiar with. BUT IT DOES NOT SWIM WELL. make that...it swims impossible.

[meremily]

is it a latex tail or the new silicone tail? im asking because im doing a silicone tail and i posted a monofin i started caus i need help then i saw that new mertailor tail silicone seem to have only swim fin so i dont know if i continue the DIY monofin, put my tempo monofin or only swim fin.

[AniaR]

it may not be consistent either.

If you're asking if you can use swim fins, I think u can, some people have before, so long as they're secure

[meremily]

[QUOTE=AniaR;37055]it may not be consistent either.

what does it mean in french Aniar?

[AniaR]

consistent? cohérent... conséquent... best words I can think of. Meaning he doesnt do the same thing all the time. Some people may get swim fins some may get monofins

[meremily]

oh ok!!! i understand now!:D
