So I'm looking at the ridges on my heels in my tail and I'm thinking what to do about them, no I had an idea!

what if someone took a sculpt of their hear "pocket" (the place wear it slopes down from the heel to the calf when you're laying down straight) using clay, the pressed it into a fiberglass or resin mold or something, then cast it with silicone or latex? You could then adhere it to the tail or directly to your skin with skin glue. I know there are some potential problems, but it's just an idea.

thoughts?

I would like to know too!

I was thinking of sewing in an old bra right where my heels are in the Magictail.

But then I got to thinking how would I hide the shape of the bra when I'm swimming...

I actually like that bra idea haha! I think its on the right track... maybe try a thick layer of other fabric, neoprene maybe?
I think that making the silicone padding would just be a lot of in needed hard work... but it's still a valuable idea for those who are up to it'
