    I don't know. It does look like a fin you can wear either way.

    You wear it the way with the holes under your heels. I can't even imagine trying to wear mine the other way...

    So I got my oceanika on craigslist. It was the size I would have ordered, but it's a smidge too small. I've modified it a little to be more confortable but it's still a bit tight. I've been wearing neoprene socks, but most of my problem is across the top. I cut it down on top to make it easier to slip into...but it still hurts over the top of my feet.

    Coyote, once the adult sizes come out in April you might want to buy a bigger one and sell your current one. Even though it's modified I'm sure it would still sell.

    Maybe...i dunno. It was allright with the socks...but they got a hole in them and I tried to cut then and glue them in the pockets but the way I didn't didn't works. I can wear size 4 little girls shoe, and it's the size I would've ordered per the online measurments anyways... hmmm

    Is it just me, or do the MerFin's shape look the same as a Fish Butt fluke?

  11. #271
    What tail are you referring too? I know Hales' tail from fishbutts has a merfin in it.

    Um... I was reading all of the Show us your tail thread, and saw it in there.

    Fish Butts used the merfins in their latex tails before their business dwindled. So, yes. That's why. :P

    Ohhh. What a shame, they have nice tails too.

    Just ordered a merfin

    So i keep seeing people saying they're going to have adult sizes in april, and maybe the neoprene tail skins too, but where is the news coming from?

  17. #277
    I don't know about the skins, but I emailed them and asked if they would be offering colors and adult sizes a few weeks ago and they said they would be. I think someone else may have too.

    Unrelated: I love how every single merfin is different, because of how the yellow/gold is mixed in.

    @CoyoteWalker - People know via emails that they've sent asking about the adult sizes and colors.

    I know, I check once a week on their website and fb page, in the hopes of a sneak peek!

    Got video of me swimming in my oceanika fin! I know I'm not the best swimmer but you can really see it well in quite a few shots.

    Coyote, that's great and I think you look like a pretty good swimmer!
