Mahina Monofin Review

There are several good reasons why the Mahina Merfin is my least favourite mermaid monofin of all time...

Mertailor Fantasea too

6/24/2020

0 Comments

 
Hello my fishes and welcome back to another blog post! Today we are talking all about the Fantasea Too mermaid monofin by the epic tail maker, Mertailor!
Picture
I receive a lot of questions about this fin and some of the most common ones included its level of comfort and speed.

This is a wonderfully comfortable monofin, well done Mertailor! I think I may even find it more comfortable (in terms of flow as well) than the original Fantasea fin. 

I personally don't make it a point to swim super fast, but I could see someone being able to gather a decent amount of speed in this fin.

The coolest part about it for me tough is the silhouette. While the style may not be my personal taste, I cannot deny the fact that this fin is cool as heck!
Just look at my shadow in this pic! How many other fins out there do you know that can deliver such a punch! It's so on-point with the vibe it's trying to achieve.

Even though I don't intend to purchase one for myself, this fin would be perfect for someone going for a very specific look as a mermaid. Definitely cool!

While I can't speak on its durability, I have seen people have a few issues with it, but if we are being totally honest these issues can be had with ANY silicone fin. Once you get a little tear, it can become a BIG DEAL quick which is why you should always check your fins for damage after each swim and be gentle with them!

Well done Mertailor! This is a rockin' monofin!

Happy Swimming!

Hey my fishes! I'm so glad you have stopped by to check out my review on this brand new monofin for merlings by FINIS!

This monofin features so many upgrades that I am absolutely wild about including:
  • separate foot pockets
  • rubber, rounded tips
  • adjustable straps
  • beautiful scale details
  • slightly translucent material for an extra mermaid effect
  • a beautiful streamline design
  • vibrant fun colours

This monofin is perfect for a young merling looking for an authentic mermaid experience!

If you would like to buy one of these monofins for your merling, you can do so in store or on Target's website through the link below:

Mermaid Monofin Collection

Let's talk about mermaid monofins!

So beyond being a mermaid, I am also a collector of the things that make mermaiding possible including MONOFINS!

For those of you who are new, monofins are essentially one big flipper made up of a variety of different materials and they help us achieve our mermaid kick in the water.

Rubber, fiberglass, plastic, and silicone are common materials for monofins.

Some monofins are really commonly used for making mermaid tails and others not so much.

I currently have 13 monofins (2 not listed yet, stay tuned) and 2 pairs of flippers in my collection. 

My current Monofins

FINIS Luna
Mertailor Fantasea Fin
Mahina Merfin
Minos
Mermaid Linden
FinFun AMP
My Two Pairs of Flippers
FINIS Foil
FINIS Rapid
Original FINIS Kids Fin
Mermaid Linden Kids Fin
FINIS Aquarius

+2 more ;)

FinFun did send me this monofin to review, but this is not a sponsored post and as always, all opinions are my own.
I received a very special package in the mail the other day and I am super excited to share with you my initial thoughts with this unboxing video!

Thank you so much FinFun for sending me this new monofin to review and I will be doing a full review later this month!
Happy Swimming!
