    Amazing extended tail

    Hello Y'all
    I found this video and I wanted to share it with you guys! This tail is amazing!
    In the title she says it's an original H2o tail but I highly doubt it. The tail looks awesome but it's not exactly like the H2o Tails

    What do y'all think?

    It's an ex-H2O tail that had to be painted for copyright reasons.
    BellaLina owns it and uses it for promotion work.

    Looks awesome. I always like the look of extended tails but the problem is you lose a significant amount of power in the water compared to a regular monofin tail from what I have seen and heard. Still I would want one

    its ok but i don't think its an original.

    1 the girls fin on the original are different, it looks like they have been changed.
    2 At the start of the vid the scales look very shiny almost like a holographic design with silicone over it.
    3 the fluke looks like the original but the fins arn't so that doesn't add up to me.

    just my thought on the matter. perhaps i'm 360 degrees wrong, but its what i can see.

    and that fabric on the end of the fluke was driving me nuts.

    It had to be altered for them to be able to use it so all those things you mentioned were added to achieve that
    Not the most attractive tail out there.

    online tonight looking for some inspiration for my tail...... LOOK. I now believe that the tail isn't an original one used in the show but perhaps a tail that was used in another movie.

    Nope it's a legit H2O tail, Renee (the owner of BellaLina) knows the guy who makes them and she bought it off him, it's descaled and painted and stuff but it is a legitimate tail from them I got to see it in person the other day and it's amazing!

    They're soooo heavy! And big! That one is about 5'2" and weighs so much!

    I actually love the shot that's nearly level with it, and I'm surprised how thick the edge of it is! It always seemed VERY thin to me in episodes. I'm obsessed with those detail photos haha.

    I like the colours they pop in the water. but im not sure if i like the material, to me it kinda ruins the look. thanks for the pictures, Mer-Crazy.

    Oh yeah! I looked inside and it's like an inch thick or something it's insane!

    Yeah, but like Fifi said it had to be altered for copyright reasons and the fabric was part of that deal. Kind of sucks.

    Do they fill the extended part with silicone?
