If we applied the first time we're still fine, right? No need to resend our apps?
No need to reapply!
Aria and Katey I got your applications!
Good luck to all applicants! I'd apply too if I lived in the States! But no, being in Australia, it cost too much in shipping.
Responded to everyone though pm! 2 more weeks and then applications are closed for good! I am building up funds to make the first set of tails soon after that!
Starting to send out emails to the 'second round' of picks for our testers. So keep an eye on your inboxes. You still have until the end of the month to apply, update, expand and change any answers!
If you don't happen to get an email please don't feel bad, we've had over 30 people apply and we can only pick 2-3 'first round' testers. But don't feel too bad! We have some special things under the waves for everyone who applies!
Also we still need to pick a name for this new tail line. x.x
Update time!
After this weekend, as long as everything goes to plan I will be able to order most of my supplies!! How exciting is that?! Which means the process will be under way after a month or so. And we will be picking tail testers pretty soon after the 1st. But for now, continue holding tight! I want to make sure that these tails are the best they can be for the price.
Rather rediculous question but just wanted to ask. Is mermaid size an issue? I'm a 53 waist and though I swim daily and do a lot of charity events in the summer I'd rather not waste your time as well as mine with applications if plus sizes aren't available. :D
Less then 2 days left to apply!
Mermaid size is not an issue, though keep in mind we've had over 30 people apply and we can only pick 2-3 'first round' testers. But don't feel too bad if you don't get picked! We have some special things under the waves for everyone who applies!
Sorry for the double post, BUT NEOPRENE HAS BEEN ORDERED!
I have 3 different ones coming to be part of the test tails (yay prototypes!) Wish me luck!!
Hey congrats and good job
Thanks Merstorm!
Testers should also be picked by the end of next week!
No problem😀
Submissions are Closed! Thank you everyone for applying! We will be picking testers hopefully by the end of next week!
I would absolutely LOVE to test a tail! That is, if the offer is still open? :)
Squeee!!!!!! Keeping my fins crossed!
Wish i was in US....
You didn't have to live in the U.S. to apply. You'd pay your own shipping costs.
For those curious as to some inexpensive Monofin options, I made a video comparing the 4 that I have! Each tail will have a monofin that the buyer wants, and each fluke will be built around that monofin.

Do you want the selected testers to provide a monofin or tell you which we prefer?
If it's one I own or have access too (like if you own one of the 4 in that video) then you wouldn't need to mail me one. If I don't have it, I'd either need a tracing with the dimensions or it would need to be mailed to me. I plan to make each tail with a bottom that can be opened so the monofin can be removed for drying purposes and practicing.
I use a finis rapid/wave (I don't care which). I have one I could mail to you if you needed :) just wanted to make sure
Yup! We will figure that out when and if the time comes! Thanks for the questions!
Keep them coming!
Aww darn, I thought I applied but I did so in my head. XD
Dang I thought you had too!
Oh well, I'm excited to see what all you make!
Thanks!
I'm actually in a discussion with the neoprene company as they well... sent the material to my billing address instead of my shipping address. I would accept it normally but the brokerage fee's are more then half of the material cost (ups going from usa to can address is such a scam) and I told them I couldn't. Even with the refunded shipping cost I'm still losing money on their mistake haha.
So more likely I'll refuse the package and they will have to send it to the correct address this time. Silly companies. At least I have time. Still waiting on other supplies.
AND FINALLY
It is time for me to announce the testers!
And they ARE
