How it’s done
Mermaid can be done in a few different variations. One of these videos shows the mermaid from a wrap that follows a diaper rollup then roll through but the mermaid is just the pose and can be done from an unwrapped bar, as well, with the aerialist's shins on top of the bar against the far rope as they hold a straight body and rotate their hips outwards while holding the closer rope with their top hand.
