I knew you wouldn't drown! Your tail sounds like it's pretty light, and I think the bouyancy is going to be more determined by the underlay material you used in your tail.Quote:

Got a chance to do another swim while I was at a convention in Columbus this past weekend. Did it early in the morning as it was mostly quiet, just a few people hanging around. Nobody seem to mind me swimming around in a mertail. Although, one of my roommates pointed out somebody on Facebook caught a photo of me in a relax position with the tail on in the pool. Thought I got away unnoticed, guess I was wrong!
This is so fun guys! I hope to join you. If only I live near. Anyway, I really want to try professional mermaid swimming someday.
P.S. Just want to share my video swimming in fins. https://youtu.be/hPR3qsYo7kI
So yesterday was an awesome day for me ^.^ My mother works as a dispatcher for a local trucking company called Melton. Well the company had a contest going on and it was to decorate your office with a Hawaiian/summer theme. When my mom called and told me about it my first reaction was "I bet you'd win of you had a mermaid at your desk,". She liked the idea and so Friday morning at 7 I was dressed up and having fun. So many of the co-workers kept coming down and wanting to get pictures. A lot of new drivers were there as well and I can't help but wonder what was going through their minds that day lol!!

Attachment 38508 Shark attacks one of the drivers and as you can see I am quite shocked indeed lol
And the best part? My mom's group won ^.^
A real mermaid sure beats a couple of tiki torches and a piece of fishnet! Congrats!
Fun!!!!
I am saving up for a mermaid tail - but only for recreational use!
I've read through this thread and all the pool tail bans don't sound fun, but hopefully my nearby swimming pools will allow me some amount of time to swim! If not, there's always a 2 hour drive to the beach C:
I'm also saving up for my custom mermaid tail [orca themed!], which I learned today will cost $5,000 ! But it's no biggie, as I'll have that amount soon : D
Can't wait to show it off !!!
Lol indeed ^.^ It was so much fun and I'd honestly love to do it again sometime xDQuote:

Lovely tails! Job well done. I'm curious about the slip tail over the Mahina. How do you get it to stay down over the foot pockets?Quote:

We use valcro that is on the mahina and the inside of the fabric on both front and back it only looks seamless because I edited my photo but it holds very well each piece of valcro holds up to 10lbs down fall is having to glue the valcro to the finQuote:

I can see the annoyance of having a velcro strip permanently attached to the merfin but I rarely wear my mine without a tailskin so it wouldn't bothing me too much.Quote:

That is what my daughter said she wears it with the skin or inside her full tail very rarely does she swim just in the mahina the original skin had a fluke that attached the same way but that didn't work as well so that is why we bought the merfin and she doesn't use the fluke that we made
