    Being a mermaid is about so much more than just swimming in a mermaid tail, it is a way of life. It is a journey of discovering who you are and who your are meant to be and of sharing a passion for the water with others and forging friendships that will last a life time. It is about believing in yourself through the thick and thin and encouraging others to do the same.
    Being a mermaid is about keeping that little spark alive, that little spark that reminds us that anything is possible with a monofin, some fabric and dream.

    Yes, being at mermaid megafest I felt some mertailor tails, and they were squishy.
    By the way, it has decent propulsion. Not the same propulsion you would get from a plastic fin though

    • @CourtneyMermaid
      @CourtneyMermaid  6 років тому

      Yup! My review of it will be up today at noon PST. ;)

    • @SerenityScratch

      Courtney Mermaid Im so excited!!

  • @123ashleycool
    @123ashleycool 6 років тому +26

    I actually love the propulsion this fun gives me! It feels very organic 💙 and I haven’t found the lack of drainage holes to be an issue, as the silicone forms a suction around my feet very well!

    • @mermaidzoephiahart
      @mermaidzoephiahart 6 років тому +3

      accioashley agreed and the silicone mermaid tail skin is amazing it's feels like a second skin like ur a really real mermaid

    @crepethepancake 6 років тому +6

    I seem to be the only one who doesn't like the floppiness, especially underwater. I absolutely adore the colours and fluke shape, and the idea of a silicone monofin, but ah man.. it's so wiggly..
    Fantastic video though! So excited to see what you do with this!!

    • @CourtneyMermaid
      @CourtneyMermaid  6 років тому +2

      I like the floppiness better in person. I felt the same way about it before swimming in it. So wiggly haha! Thank you for watching! ♥

  • @mermaidproductions1115
    @mermaidproductions1115 6 років тому +4

    I like the floppy ones because you get a smoother swim. It also feels easier to move around in the water

  • @mermaidproductions1115
    @mermaidproductions1115 6 років тому +4

    I love the big flop because it makes the swim look smooth and looks less stiff

  • @Ymirson
    @Ymirson 5 років тому +4

    I'm sure that chuncky part near ur anckles is the spot where the silicone gets poured into the fluke mold

    I have re-watched this video and the first swim video about 4 times now but your reaction to the sparkles is too precious. Your dog is so cute btw.

      Courtney Mermaid I love your content so much. I do not have enough money to get a tail myself nor can I find any pool in my country that accept mermaid tails. So I am living my dream with your videos. ❤🧜🧜

  • @hopingfordespair6419
    @hopingfordespair6419 4 роки тому +1

    I love how the floppiness makes it look more like how a natural tail would flop instead of the often unnatural stiffness to flukes

  • @matthewdueck357
    @matthewdueck357 6 років тому +2

    I have one. It has good propulsion and is very comfy.

  • @fuzzyx2face
    @fuzzyx2face 5 років тому +1

    These are heavy on land but in the water they lighten up. I love this blue monofin, I got the purple one. I don’t know much about repairing tails, but maybe you could add some silipoxy on the inside of that thin spot, if you feel like it could tear later on. It’s probably best to ask him though. I also got lots of cat hair stuck to my fin.

    Can't wait to unbox mine... Christmas gift from my boyfriend. The box is sitting right there mocking me! Plan is to make a sequin tail to go with it... I hope the color matches my sequins... I picked the flamingo pink.

    • @CourtneyMermaid
      @CourtneyMermaid  4 роки тому +1

      Yes, this would not be a good monofin for a FinFolk fabric tail. You need a stiff blade for sure. I know a lot of mermaids recommend this monofin: www.finisswim.com/Shooter-Monofin-M and if you use my code "mermaidcourtney" at checkout you can get yourself 20% off. ♥

      It is SO MUCH comfier than the Mahina (which is horribly uncomfortable in my opinion). I hope you like it! ♥♥

      HAHA! Thank you for that! ♥ A lot of mers like to start with a Facebook Event and share it with other mers in their pod. Pick a time and a place, make sure it's safe and allows tails and away you go!

  • @vixxeipop8138
    @vixxeipop8138 3 роки тому

    Two years later, I'm coming in to ask about the thickness. You pointed out that one foot pocket was thinner than the other.. Did it ever cause you an issue and/or did you get the issue resolved through mertailor?

  • @Rose_nouveau
    @Rose_nouveau 5 років тому +1

    Oh...that fin is very floppy...I hope his other fins are more firm? I wouldn't mind if the very tips were floppy, but I have concerns for swimming in something so jelly-like...
    Will you be posting about how it swims like?

    Hello Courtney! I've been looking to paint my very own mermaid tail but I was wondering if the smallest can of paint that Permaset sells could be used to paint a whole tail?

    • @CourtneyMermaid
      @CourtneyMermaid  6 років тому +1

      I couldn't tell you for sure. It's going to depend on how big the tail is. I also tend to mix a lot of my colours so I have never tried to use only one colour to do a whole tail. Good luck though! ♥

    Courtney Mermaid , Hi there and you are a huge inspiration of mine as a Mer.
    I absolutely 💙 this fin and I absolutely the other 2 fins in your video and I absolutely 💙 the SunTail Monofin.
    My question is since I have a Black Fin Fun Monofin Pro, what fin do you think is the next step up from mine that I said above seeing how I’m a beginner Merfairy?
    Because when I can I’m thinking of getting my next tail set in Blue to match my favorite Element of Water seeing how my Mer name and Mersona is Tauriel The Element Merfairy.
    If you can help me with everything that I said above please let me know as soon as you can here in the comments below.
    😃😀🧜‍♀️💛💙❤️💚💖💜🖤🧚‍♀️😀😃

    • @CourtneyMermaid
      @CourtneyMermaid  6 років тому

      Hi Tauriel! It depends on what tail you are planning on getting next and what monofin it uses. If you are planning on continuing on with FinFun then I would stick with the monofins that they sell. If you are going to try a different tail from a different company/maker then you might need to research what fins they use. ♥

    • @RebekahLeigh1979
      @RebekahLeigh1979 6 років тому +1

      Courtney Mermaid , Well since I’m a Beginner Merfairy and I’m a Element Merfairy my First tail set is based on my favorite color of Blue and matching my favorite Element of Water so that’s why I picked my Arctic Blue set from Fin Fun.
      I would like to be able to get a different tail set still in Blue to still match my favorite color of Blue and matching my favorite Element of Water since I’m not ready yet to change the color and the matching element.
      I still would like to get a few other things to go with my tail set that I have now when I can since I’m on SSD and I only get one check each month to live off from so that’s why I was asking what fabric tail company do you recommend next as a second tail set after I have the other things that I would like to be able to get to go with my tail set that I have now.
      If you think that Sun Tail Mermaid is similar to Fin Fun then I’ll go with Sun Tail Mermaid as my next tail set to go with next when I can and after I have the other things that I would like to be able to get to go with my tail set that I have now.
      😃😀🧜‍♀️💛💙❤️💚💖💜🖤🧚‍♀️😀😃
