Floppy!!!!

[Spindrift]

Those colors are awesome! I can't wait to see the whole thing altogether. Although now I'm craving fruit roll-ups and fruit-by-the-foot...

nice job

[Merman_Shawn]

Holy crap it's awesome! I like that it's kinda floppy, but it looks like you get good propulsion from it.

[Mermaid Lorelei]

:> Thanks guys.

Funny thing is, there are no straps on my monofin, so I had to swim very slowly to keep the fin on across the pool. (The tightness of the tail will hold my feet inside the monofin later on.) With the straps on, I can FLY in this monofin.

[Mermaid Lorelei]

Thank you all so much for the encouragement and compliments. It means a lot to me. :> And I am still working hard on my tail. I'm just stuck working on the seams right now and man do they take forever to do well.

[Mermaid Lorelei]

I promise I'm still working on my tail! I'm just going slow is all. :> I'd rather take my time and get it exactly how I want it than attack it quickly and turn out not liking it. So yeah, I promise I'll post more updates as soon as I can.

[Merman_Shawn]

I'm all atwitter with anticipation! It looks like it's going to be colorful, bright and beautiful!

Ha, that's my problem. I always get overexcited and try and do the whole thing asap. I can admire your patience.
