Here you go, top one is an original, bottom one is mine with eyes
This is the largest Nike that Floyd Roman made, it's about 3.5 ounces. Haven't swam mine yet but hopefully this weekend. I tried to imitate the color that vineyardblues had at the MSBA show. Hi Peter
If it swims alright, I might make it for the lazy swap

Love that color! How'd you weight it?

Pretty sure it's weighted in the pooper, it's tail heavy. I'm guessing it swims like a bottle plug. Both original and clone are going swimming
Don't worry Tagger, you'll get one
