A comprehensive review of my 2018 custom Mertailor Spellbound tail made with the Aquarius Fluke, pectoral fins, hip fins, and a double dorsal.
I review every aspect of the tail, and how different details might factor into your purchase decision. How difficult is it to carry? To swim in? How durable is it? Have I had any issues? Find out in this review.

I was shocked at how low my tail price was going to be for what I wanted it was like 2000 when I went to other websites before going to mertailor It was going to be i like 5000-6000 and i was like hell nah but then mertailor came out with spellbound an i am now in the process of making enough money to buy a tail This is something I would never think i could do but I'm close and excited

I've got a Spellbound coming in a couple months with the Aquarius fluke as well, just no additional fins. After watching this, I'm super excited for it to arrive and I'm glad I went with the MerTailor.

Oh my goodness gracious, I love the video and it's so helpful, but I keep forgetting to listen cause I am so dazzled by the tail!!! This video shows Mertailor silicone tails in such detail and beauty that I haven't even seen on his Instagram! This video has helped me finally decide which maker to buy from, thank you!!!!

Nice to see a new video! My friend's got the same one a couple months ago, looking forward to seeing what you have to say. ^_^ (watched video now...) - ok, watched. :) Question; how did you find the thick bit between the heel straps? When I swam that tail, it started to bite after a while. My friend's ended up carving it back to get rid of the bulk.

@MermaidEcho 5 жыл бұрын

Interesting... I don't have that problem! But thank you for asking... I've heard neoprene socks might help!

@Digimer 5 жыл бұрын

@@MermaidEcho it's probably a foot shape issue then. Neoprene socks helped with my mahina, but I found it was simply too much bulk between the back of my heels (my friend did, to). Once she modified it though, she's going it a really good tail. It was certainly one of the more comfy silicones I've worn.

I still feel the same way!!! Unfortunately he's not making Spellbounds right now, but I do believe they are the best bang for your buck.

I want to get a spellbound and when I was setting up my order, the smallest foot size was medium. My normal US women’s should size is anywhere between a 3-6 (obvi depends on brand and such) but seeing as when I was on swim team I could wear size 7-9 in flippers (fins, whatever) I’m just curious as to what my size should be?
