Wow poor one, that would make it slow.
I'd call it Curly Joe

That's good, I'll bet if it was curled the other way it would be more of a problem, I'll bet it has to use its body to adapt on the upbeat
I'll bet if they are having to going fast for a while it would fall behind

I have never seen a curled fluke in a humpback. This guys is nearly on Keets (orca at SW SD) level... but even that is extreme for an orca...
