my dad and his best mate have been working and developing surfboard fins in the background for many years- this week at the start of the margaret river wsl pro they launched the final production version to the public! first a idea 35-40 yrs ago at the bluff on a surf trip at quobba station- now a reality. I've been riding this final production version for months and its insane! the speed and hold is like no other, definitely the way forward for paddle surfing ,towing and also kiting. the future is here!!!! designed and developed right here in wa, in margaret river.

From the article:

They took off like a rocket. They held. They turned on a dime and the more that people rode them it began to snowball.



Rockets, Dimes & Snowballs.

They're like a train on tracks, smoother than silk, and more drive than Michael Schumacher.

How do they compare to the C-Drives fins that were going to be game changers?
