    SINGLE FINS

    We offer a wide range of fins suitable for your longboard, minimal, and egg boards, whether you prefer a single fin setup or a 2+1 configuration. Our selection includes fins designed for all-around performance as well as specifically tailored for noseriding. Whatever your surfing style may be, we have a variety of fin templates available to accommodate your preferences and enhance your riding experience.

    SHAPES

    RAKED FIN

    The Bayside's proportions are well-balanced, with a large base that generates plenty of drive and a rake that promotes excellent turns and carves through the water.It is particularly well-suited for use on mid-length to longboards as it offers both speed and manoeuvrability.

    The fin's solid base provides a stiff flex pattern that gradually loosens towards the tip. This makes it responsive for quick turns, while still maintaining a stable and reliable feel when carving.Whether you're looking to catch some long, smooth waves or carve up a steeper wall, the Bayside fin can be an excellent choice, it is a versatile choice that should appeal to a wide range of surfers looking for a high-performance single fin that is adaptable to different board setups and conditions.

    NOSE RIDER

    Introducing our Noserider, a timeless pivot fin designed for longboards. Available in a 10.5-inch template, this fin is crafted to enhance your noseriding capabilities. With its generous surface area, the Noserider provides exceptional stability and balance, allowing you to confidently maneuver up and down the board while staying locked into the pocket of the wave.

    To add a touch of elegance, the Noserider features a hand-sanded finish, giving it a classic and refined look. Not only does it perform flawlessly, but it also adds a stylish aesthetic to your board.Whether you're a seasoned noserider or looking to develop your skills, this fin will provide the stability and balance you need for long, graceful rides.

    MATERIAL

    FIBREGLASS

    Fiberglass, as a material used in surfboard single fins, offers several distinct advantages. Its combination of strength, durability, and flexibility makes it a popular choice . It allows the fin to be responsive and maneuverable while maintaining stability. This means that fiberglass single fins can provide the right balance of control and agility when riding the waves. In terms of flexibility, fiberglass single fins strike a balance that allows for responsiveness without compromising on stability.

    The material exhibits a level of flex that enables surfers to carve smooth turns and glide effortlessly through the water. This flexibility enhances the surfing experience while maintaining the desired level of control.

    To guarantee optimal performance, all our fiberglass single fins undergo meticulous hand-sanding. This process ensures that every fin is crafted with utmost precision and attention to detail, resulting in the best possible results.

    BAMBOO

    Fibreglassed bamboo surfboard fins combine the natural strength and flexibility of bamboo with the added reinforcement and durability of fibreglass. These fins take advantage of both materials to create a high-performance and resilient option for surfers. The combination of bamboo and fibreglass adds an extra layer of protection and strength to the fins.

    The fibreglass helps to strengthen the bamboo, reducing the potential for breakage or damage during heavy surfing sessions. This makes the fins more robust and able to withstand the demands of powerful waves and challenging conditions. The fibreglass layer on the bamboo fins also provides a smooth and consistent surface, enhancing water flow and reducing drag.

    Additionally, they maintain many of the sustainability advantages associated with bamboo fins. Bamboo is still the core material used in the fins, contributing to their eco-friendly nature.

    FLEX

    Fin flex refers to the degree to which the fins bend or flex under pressure, particularly while turning or manoeuvring on a wave.

    Flexibility in fins can have a significant impact on the overall performance and feel of a you board The flex is determined by various factors, including the materials used and the specific design characteristics.
    Fins with more flex tend to provide a smoother and more responsive feel in the water. They can generate additional "spring" or energy during turns, allowing for quicker and more dynamic maneuvers.

    Stiffer fins offer increased stability and control, particularly at high speeds. They tend to provide a more predictable and direct response, which can be advantageous for powerful, drawn-out turns or maintaining control in challenging conditions.

    DRIVE

    Drive refers to the ability of the fins to generate forward propulsion and maintain speed while riding a wave. The design and placement of surfboard fins play a crucial role in creating drive.

    Fins with a larger surface area, base or a more swept-back shape are generally more effective in generating drive. Fins that are placed further back on the tail of the board also tend to enhance drive by increasing the leverage and allowing for more efficient power transfer.

    More upright fins are often favored in powerful waves or for surfers who prefer a more aggressive, driving style whilst smaller, more raked-back fins may offer a looser feel with less drive, suitable for smaller, less powerful waves or move maneuverable experience.

    RAKE

    Fin rake refers to the angle or degree of backward sweep in the shape of the fin. It is measured by the angle between the leading edge of the fin and a straight line perpendicular to the base of the fin. The rake of a surfboard fin affects its performance and characteristics in the water.

    Fins with more rake, or a greater angle of backward sweep, tend to provide a looser and more maneuverable feel. They allow for easier pivoting and quick direction changes, making them suitable for tighter turns and more dynamic surfing styles.

    Fins with more rake may sacrifice some stability and drive at higher speeds. Conversely, fins with less rake, or a more upright shape, offer increased stability and control. They excel in generating forward drive and maintaining speed, making them ideal for powerful and larger waves. Fins with less rake provide a more locked-in feel during high-speed maneuvers and can enhance control and predictability.

    FIN HEIGHT

    Fin height refers to the vertical measurement of a fin from its base to its highest point, typically measured perpendicular to the surfboard's bottom surface.

    The height of a fin affects various aspects of surfing, including stability, maneuverability, and control. Fins with greater height offer increased stability and control, particularly during high-speed maneuvers and in larger waves. They provide more surface area and grip in the water, allowing for better hold and traction.

    Fins with lower height offer enhanced maneuverability and responsiveness. They allow for quicker pivoting and tighter turns, making them suitable for surfers who prefer a more agile and dynamic style of surfing. Lower height also tend to reduce drag and can offer increased speed in certain conditions. Additionally, the interaction between the height of the front and rear fins, as well as the overall configuration of multiple fins, can also influence the performance and feel of the surfboard.
