How do you swim with that? XD

FreshwaterMermaid In reply to PascalOfPiers [2012-02-08 04:38:09 +0000 UTC]

I've always swam 'dolphin kick style' and to put a tail on seemed totally natural to me, so it's not hard. lol

That's good XD. Though I gotta ask...if you dreamed of being a mermaid, which I am just assuming...wouldn't it be a bother to lug the tail around all the time? XD

FreshwaterMermaid In reply to PascalOfPiers [2012-02-09 06:13:07 +0000 UTC]

I suppose the kind of look you'd get when a 22 yrold girl walks to the pool, beach, lake, etc, with a monofin in hand and a mermaid tail over her shoulder? lol

FreshwaterMermaid In reply to PascalOfPiers [2012-02-11 00:12:56 +0000 UTC]

A Mono-fin, it's basically the skeletal structure for the fluke of my tail.

FreshwaterMermaid In reply to PascalOfPiers [2012-02-12 21:08:58 +0000 UTC]

It fits snug, so it takes alot of effort to get in it. Therefore it doesn't come off.

PascalOfPiers In reply to FreshwaterMermaid [2012-02-13 00:15:38 +0000 UTC]

Oh XD. Though I wonder if you could ever get, like, the full on mermaid costume XD. The shell bra, the red hair...a lot of mermaids have red hair...

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

FreshwaterMermaid In reply to PascalOfPiers [2012-02-13 00:54:02 +0000 UTC]

Saying, "Alot of mermaids have red hair..." Is like saying alot of humans have red hair... which in actuality isn't true because True Red hair is a recessive gene which means the person would have to have both alleles in order to have red hair. And it's actually only evident in 1% to 2% of the Earth's population. So yeah, your statement wouldn't really fly for mermaids either if they are related in any way to humans.

I am hoping soon to finish my mermaid top that I'm creating, which I'll wear if I ever get in my tail again and make more movies/pictures. So we'll see.

That looks really great

Im planning to make a tail myself, I got a mono and know what fabric i need *swimsuit or wetsuit, swimsuit mostly because thats possibly easy to get* is there any hints or tips you can give?

FreshwaterMermaid In reply to BeaumanZero [2008-03-05 06:39:44 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!
I just heard from a friend on youtube that you can get cheap neoprene on ebay. good to hear you've got a monofin, they're awesome!
you might wanna check out my vids on youtube.com/fwmgirl88. I've got one video that explains (roughly) how I made my tail. (Be sure to check out the 1 video response on there too, it's good.)

BeaumanZero In reply to FreshwaterMermaid [2008-03-09 09:14:38 +0000 UTC]

Neoprene off Ebay? should have a look
With the video checks on Youtube, that may depend on net speed *home connection and wireless from mine site* but I will have a look when i get the chance

Thanks for the info, I really want to make a start on this

Hey! Looking good there miss mermaid! Hehehe. Mind me asking, do your ankles hurt or feet hurt from swimming like a mermaid?

PS:Your my motivation to become a mermaid like you (trying to sew....hehe, can't do it well, but keeping at it.)

FreshwaterMermaid In reply to HalfGirlHalfFish [2007-11-27 04:12:42 +0000 UTC]

Lol Thanks.
Hurt? No it's more comfortable to me. ^_^ The only thing that hurts about swimming are my eyes afterwards sometimes the chlorine can be really irritable. XD

Hey, another monofinner! Nice to know there are other who know the real way to swim. Nice costume by the way. I've seen others, but they all look totaly fake. Like legs wrapped in a bedsheet or something. What monofin are you using?

FreshwaterMermaid In reply to Kracatorr [2007-10-14 02:05:24 +0000 UTC]

Kracatorr In reply to FreshwaterMermaid [2007-10-14 23:35:44 +0000 UTC]

Cool! I like the Rapid for me. Basically the same as the Tempo. Both have the adjustable straps. Most of the fancy ones don't have that. I thought about getting a nice one from Waterway, but they aren't adjustable, so I'll stick with the Rapid for a while.

FreshwaterMermaid In reply to Kracatorr [2007-10-16 15:57:03 +0000 UTC]

Mhm I like the adjustable straps too. Only since my feet are a little to big for the fin, I had to duct tape them. lol
I wanna get the rapid when I have more money. lol

WonderDookie [2007-09-14 22:50:01 +0000 UTC]

Neato. Now I'm really curious about that thing. How heavy is it? How easy is it to swim with that thing on? Do you practice a mermaid swim?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

FreshwaterMermaid In reply to WonderDookie [2007-09-20 15:42:24 +0000 UTC]

I've been swimming like a mermaid since I was 5. I've pretty much perfected it because of that. hehe
It's a little heavier, but not too bad. I'll be making a new one soon, out of neoprene. (Wetsuit material)

WonderDookie In reply to FreshwaterMermaid [2007-09-21 02:22:04 +0000 UTC]

Well I like it a lot. I hope your new one works out well.

I bet you could really freak out people at a beach resort if you got one to look really realistic. Although then you might get harpooned.

that is nifty...

I could never choose if i wanted to be a mermaid, faerie or princess when I was little...

Haha, the first thing I thought of, because of the pool, was Lady in the Water. (It's actually a good movie, I think.)
