# Dorsal

The tail is a key piece of a koin, and they come in many different forms. Its upper fin, in addition, always matches its tail. We call the set of both elements the dorsal.

**Bonnet**

This type of dorsal is the most common among the koins, providing just enough technique to let them show off at races.

With this common set of larger fins and tail, koins with these features are ready to paint their rivals' defeat.

**Beak**

Similar in appearance to that of a mighty bird, this tail appears to start and end at the same time. Makes for a fantastic set with its upper fin.

**Bow**

A rather uncommon sight, this elegant dorsal is simple, yet makes a statement.

**Blade**

Don't swim near this rare tail, or you might wind up cutting yourself on its sharp appearance. Also, watch out for its upper fin!

This rather rare back is a spectacle anywhere it goes, leaving in its wake, a trail of admiration.

**Blackfly**

While it’s completely harmless, this particularly rare stinger of a fin makes opponents think twice before trying to pass.

<br>

**Basil**

Only a small batch of koins come with this particular back, which seems to leave a sweet scent on any track it’s displayed.

**Bight**

Commanding glances anywhere it goes, this set brings up an immediate urge to surf whenever it’s seen. Cowabunga!

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.koins.run/aspects-of-a-koin/physical-atributes/body-parts/dorsal.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
