Slowly skimming above the sand, Triakis swam down the length of the beach and back up again. The search wasn't so much for prey as it was play. There were there were swimmers to spook, balls to bat, and floats to flip. Triakis didn't do any of this out of malice, just mischievousness. For even at the silliest of pranks on an unsuspecting beach goer, the shark was there as a newfound companion for fun in the hot sun.

This shark is 245 cm long (inflated) and made of a new 0.28mm pooltoy-grade vinyl that is both robust and flexible. It has three chambers: body and both pectoral fins. The photos are of the pre-final prototype. The colours will change slightly (cooler) and the valve placement will be at the back of the body and on the undersides of the pectoral fins. All three valves will be soft-plug valves. The red mouth-line will be slightly wider.

This information reflects the information available at this stage of the project. It will be updated as the project matures.

  4. Will this toy be available with SPH mod? No.
