    @sarahlee6303منذ 3 سنوات I personally am a hardcore Mertailor fan, but facts are facts. Those monofins are different. Thank you Courtney for this video and I 100% agree with the id="hidden1" class="buttons"> facts, there's no infringement because they're simply different fins. ....وسعت 91

    @whosyou3022منذ 3 سنوات The mertailor community honestly scare me
    Both fins are completely different!
    Thank you so much for this educational video!

    @lotusauriel1460منذ 3 سنوات It seems to me that E.D. is trying to claim that he invented monofins entirely, and that any and all other monofins are in violation of his patent. Except id="hidden2" class="buttons"> that he did not invent any of it. He doesn't own the company that makes the material he uses, he did not invent any molding process, and people have been sharing their tail making processes and tutorials on several platforms for YEARS. He didn't even invent the vent design or the process of using powermesh to reinforce dragonskin silicone. I have had people try to tell me that any other silicone monofins than his are specifically illegal,and that he worded his patent so vaguely, so he could claim that. Which simply is not true. What I don't understand is how he can have a legal claim to processes, material, and designs that he did NOT invent or even improve on. ....وسعت 98

    @merjaymermanphمنذ 3 سنوات Happy birthday Eric Ducharme, The Mertailor! Hope he will watch this as well‍♂️ That’s business, some product will inspire one product but in a lid="hidden3" class="buttons">ong run, we are happy merfolks after all! I used Mahina, Finis, and soon the Fantasea…. Well for me, my goal is to enjoy. Mermaiding is a sweet escape for all the toxicity in life! Thank you Courtney for this. You clearly stated every facts. ....وسعت 16

    @TheWalkingMermaidمنذ 3 سنوات This is funny because I remember when Fox Moon Productions started having customers sign contracts agreeing to not make their own tails once E.D bought from them and started making his own. 18

    @ouranios100منذ 3 سنوات The Drama actually started by accident. Ladonna started selling exactly the same fin in gold. Lucia made a post to address this, but accidentally tagged id="hidden5" class="buttons"> the mertailor. After Lucia removed the tag and specified that she did not mean the mertailor, and her problem was with Ladonna. Of course people never read the full story, because its in human nature to fight without reading first. Now among Ladonna and lucia, apparently it is said that none of them are producing the fin. They are using the same maker with whom they do not share design exclusivity, hence the difference in the colour but not in shape.
    As for your video.. I absolutely love that you did it, also I love the lengths you went into, in order to be as precise as possible. thank you

    @shadowscalestudiosمنذ 3 سنوات This is spectacular. Fantastic video, love how you went through each of the differences and explained them in a practical sense. Definitely think the Lucia is vastly different and is gonna be a game changer for sure. 5

  • @
    @Veramontacaballoمنذ 3 سنوات I understand that Mertailor also tried to say that the evermermaid monofin was also a plagiarism of his. I think every time it comes out slightly similar he does it. 6
  • @
    @AlexieStarقبل 8 أشهر Those bubbles come from mixing the silicone and not degassing the material before pouring. Not degassing and having bubbles can cause weak points in the id="hidden10" class="buttons"> cured material and reduce tensile strength.
    That little nub is a reminent of the injection mold (a two or more part mold which the material is "injected" into the mold from the top of the mold). That nub is where the pour spout was placed for pouring.

    @MarronStoneمنذ 3 سنوات Thank you for this video! I learned a bit about patents now ☺
    And as I expected the fins aren't even close to being similar
    Can't wait to have enough money for new monofins!

    @jahnaderr821منذ 3 سنوات So, backing up for a moment, what started all this, the reason for the video? Mertailor claiming patent infringement?
    Good luck with that, because id="hidden12" class="buttons"> with any patent, is someone changes the design, lyrics, melody (I'm in the music business) by just 10% it becomes a different entity.

    @HeilielPrinceمنذ 3 سنوات Hm This is a very good analysis. I did have some concern about how floppy the mer tailor monofin is. Too floppy and you don’t get a good propulsion for sure. I’ve been a long time monofin user myself. I like how mertailors tails look, he has great designs, but I wonder if any stiffer monofin would fit in his tails ....وسعت 4

    @spenceryilagan7382منذ 2 سنوات How does it compare to the fantasea fin two? And do you think it would fill out the mertailor whimsy tails ? 2
  • @
    @alimitlive9890منذ 2 سنوات Do you think a lucia tail ( customize to the shape of the tail) and a fantasy 1 monofin will work togather?
    also, do you have a photo of the fantasy 1 on the Lucia monofin? To see the diferrence of their sizes

    @sammiraymermaid6720منذ 3 سنوات Great video! Very indepth and I agree. Do you have a video of you swimming with the fish fin and the tail you made because from those little clips, it looked mermazing! Please tell me you will be making some to sell!
  • @
    @EmmyEversمنذ 3 سنوات Random question: I didn’t know much about the Lucia until I watched your videos about it. I’ve always swam in the Finis Foil as it was my very first monofin from years back. How would you compare the stiffness between those two monofins? Im looking to purchase a new one for a tail I’m making and I absolutely love the ankle straps and body of the monofin being one piece. So I’ve been torn between the Mahina and Finis shooter for some time. (Though the shooter I’ve read is sharp so I’m not too sure) ....وسعت

    @deannorwood287منذ 2 سنوات I mean there obviously different and plus he charges 300 bucks for the fantases 4 maybe this one is cheaper and he's worried people won't want to spend 300 dollars on a monofin if there's a cheaper option

    @maplehockeylove6339منذ 3 سنوات I read through the patent and it's just. the vaguest possible thing lmao.
    Like it can be summed up as "soft silicone fin that looks like id="hidden24" class="buttons"> a fish fin with straps"
    Kind of shady bs imo, I like his work but jfc
