DETAILS

This fin is considered by our hard-marking team as a "second."
The images here are only for reference, and each fin defect may differ slightly from the photos shown. 
Typical issues are purely minor cosmetic issues and will mostly go unnoticed once on the board.
The images shown are also the worst examples, so we predict that you'll be pleasantly surprised at how good the fins are when they arrive.
Unfortunately, we cannot offer returns or refunds on these fins, so please reconsider purchasing if you are a super picky shopper. 

Seconds fins are not authorised for re-sale through retail websites or stores.  

Defects on this fin may include: 

  • Small scratches
  • Air bubbles
  • Uneven lines due to the fibreglass panel layup
  • Resin colour bleeds or small drips
  • Uneven foil lines
  • Black mark in cloth

We first reached out to Alex Lopez for a potential collaboration based on our shared love of quality craft and evergreen designs, regardless of the current trends. Together we came up with a balanced 7.75" single fin drawn from a classic but relevant template. 

Suitable for a wide range of templates, Alex's fin has a moderately upright rake, allowing tight turns, with a broad base to offset that looseness and provide drive off the bottom.

The three-tone panel layup was a copy of an old Brewer-style fin we have had lying around the factory for years, which we are stoked to bring back to life.

"This template is based on the classic 70's single fins and one of my dad's favourites that he rode for many years. Wide base with not a lot of rake, this one offers slightly more flex than the original. I like to ride it in single fins and eggs in the mid 7' to 8' range." - Alex Lopez
