This is an amazing product. Beautifully made, pretty heavy and durable, and quite large. I had to squeeze it into a larger checked suitcase and had to fold the ends of the fins up for it to fit. Man, does this ever give you speed and power in the water!!! I am comfortable swimming, but no expert. I was amazed at how quickly I could dive down 20 ft and then shoot up to the surface! Easy to maneuver as well. I can't rave enough about this product. I really felt like a fish. I won't snorkel or scuba dive without it now! It was comfortable enough. My feet did have a few bruises after a full day of extensive swimming in the ocean, but no blisters. Nothing I wouldn't expect from normal flippers, so there was no surprise there. I am a true size 8 US and got a medium. I probably could've gotten a small. It wasn't too big, I just had a little room. I got a pair of swim socks that made it fit perfectly. It was easy to put on in the water.

My daughter loves this fin, but it does start to compress on her feet after awhile. You definitely need fin socks with it because it will rub raw spots on the feet. After I modified her tail skin to fit though this looks beautiful in the water! And this is best for strong swimmers. Update: I have included pictures of both a modified tail covers and a made from scratch one. The purple one is the made from scratch and is next to a fin fun tail skin and fin. As you can see the Mahina is a lot larger. The blue tails and green are all purchased and then had fabric added beyond that to cover the extra length and width of the Mahina. I loved that we did this because we were able to be creative and create original fabric tails.

This is now my favorite fin. I have several monofins and make mermaid costumes often, but I wasn't prepared for how easy this tail would be to swim with. It's a little heavier than other monofins out of the water, but once you're in the water it is a dream to swim with. The extra weight makes it super fast and so you can dive down under water even in the ocean with very little effort. In the pool it is even more effective and actually reduced my time on a 50m by almost a minute. The foot loops are hard to get on when your feet are dry, so my recommendation is to take it into the water, drop it to the bottom, and then put your feet in, or, if you're wearing a tail over the monofin put your feet it and get the inside of the foot sleeves wet first and then put your feet in, close the tail around it, and get into the pool. You cannot walk in this type of fin. The line of the monofin is really elegant though and makes for beautiful tails. It will make you want to spend your life in the water! Great workout too!

I love it !! It was heaver than I thought it would be but did not weigh me down in the water . I decided to take it to a pool with 50 meter lanes to swim in . WOW is this thing powerful . I swam faster than I have ever swam before . I could glide on my back just using my legs and fin to swim with ( look mom no hands ) I could dive quickly to the bottom of the pool and with one huge kick I am quickly back to the surface . This is awesome . I am a shoe size 10 woman's and the size large fit well . It is a bit stiff but I am sure that's because its brand new . Also after about 1 hour workout I felt my right ankle feeling a little rash from the fin but that's normal with any new fin . I think a water sock might help with the rubbing on my ankle . I would defiantly recommend this to anyone wanting to swim faster and feel like a powerful mermaid doing it . I have bought other mermaid monofins and this one is defiantly the best .

Beautiful for 'mermaiding', can't wait to make a tail to cover it!

Came immediately! I was very happy as I was having trouble buying the black fin off the international website. They say it is fixed now. My only complaint is that the tips came all bent up wiggly. Since I had read about heat warping the rubber, I decided to use it in my favor. Late in the day, I laid the fin on my hot concrete (flat) in the yard, place a few light flower pots on the warped tips, and in about an hour, they were perfectly flat! I succeeded fixing the tips myself. I tried slipping them on my feet just to make sure they fit. It took a little bit a wiggling, but they fit perfectly. I bought some neoprene socks to wear with the fin to not have the rubber edges dig into my feet. I hope the foot pockets will still fit with the socks on!

Best fin for pools
by Justine Bendickson (5 out of 5 stars)

This fin is amazing! I have used this in both the ocean and the pool, but I find it better in still water. The fin is really soft at the ends which means it moves beautifully in the water, but doesn't give you as much power as a stiffer blade would. The shape is very mermaid like and looks wonderful in and out of the water. Because the fin is made of rubber it is extremely durable; you don't have to worry about stepping on it, or smashing it against the side of the pool, and it isn't as big of a problem if you hit somebody in the pool because it's so flexible. I agree with the Mahina makers that this is a tale that would do best without a full tail skin. I don't think it compensates very well for the drag of the fabric. If you're going to use this in the ocean or in another larger body of water make sure that you are an experienced swimmer because it isn't great at fighting current.

Awesome fin, but came with signs of usage

This merfin is the coolest thing ever. You really feel like a mermaid and it doesn't hurt your feet. The only thing was they came without the original packing and with a lot of signs of usage. It wasn't new at all. Anyway, I won't return it cuz I love it. And it was used but not damaged. I recommend this fin maybe from another seller.
