Haven’t had the opportunity to try the sail yet but it looks great!
No more drag. Just drive.
Tribal WEEDMAX
Fast, stable and powerful sailing without getting slowed down by weed
Frustrated by weed at your local shallow spot? You’re not alone.
WeedMax brings true Slalom performance to shallower and weed heavy waters. Shorter, cleaner and built for speed without compromise.
On lakes, estuaries or coastal bays, submerged weeds can turn sessions into frustration: loss of speed, spin-outs, constant de-weeding. Most weed fins try to offer a solution, but sacrifice drive and performance. WeedMax changes that. Built on our proven MK2 slalom outline, it has been engineered for speed, control and flow even in shallow, weedy conditions.
WHY WEEDMAX IS DIFFERENT
Other weed fins often feel like a compromise with less drag but at the cost of speed and control.
WeedMax delivers the balance that matters: speed, lift, upwind drive and smooth carving while slicing through weeds without hesitation, even in shallow spots where the WeedSpeed is a bit too long.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I size differently than with a straight fin?
Yes. Roughly 2–4 cm shorter due to rake and reduced depth.
Is it good for shallow water?
Absolutely. The rake reduces effective depth and sheds weed efficiently.
Can I use it on wide boards?
Yes. WeedMax has enough lift and drive for wide Freerace/Slalom boards. Use our [Fin Selector] to match your set-up.
Is it beginner friendly?
It’s tuned for intermediate to advanced sailors, but confident recreational riders will also enjoy its forgiving feel.
