It's amazing and durable but went a size down this time because the last one slid of during swimming can't wait to try out the new one in the summer
As you can see, I have now decided to go early with choice of Tailskin and by the middle of next month ! I shall be ordering this tail as my second tail of choice. The first choice was the Celtic tail and I will be ordering this shortly. Size choice will be Large for the both of them!
This was my first tailskin thought and no full decision as yet! Reason for why is because I have a lot of practice and passing of seven requirements for merperson swimming to deal with first. So I will be here back in - once having made some solid progress with these requirements. I simply need to get going on it.
The South Coast Mermaid group Anna - suggested that I should go for a tail as well! But having purchased the necessary monofin I have to start getting ready for the day when I swim with the full equipment in March or April 2025 - it could be slightly longer than that! The Barracuda tailskin is tempting. So for now. A holding off. I have to learn to use the monofin properly. And practicing with it and using some other bits as well to dolphin kick properly. Rest assured - I will crack that. For now this is the front runner of three. So four stars is
that!
Although tempted to get it now! There are two others that I like the look of! For right now. Other consideration must take priority.
Got this tail thinking crocodile to go to Australia last year, but ended up wearing it more as a viking mermaid in Norway!
Had to leave it home this summer to give other tails a chance!
I love the big scales, and that it doesn't show dirt like lighter colored tails do.
I bought the first version of the Barracuda tail when it first came out (2016), and I am so happy I bought the new one!
The scale shape is so different now, more like a dragon scale really; and the fluke has nerviations, that none of the other Mermaidens tails have. Also, now it has a tiny bit of Velcro in the middle of the fluke (where you insert the monofin) that you can close shut, so the fabric won't open when you are swimming. Very nice upgrade, in my opinion.
