SHALLOW WATER WEED CHALLENGE

We looked at the locations, and the requirements to suit this style of sailing in shallow waters with the occasional seaweed bed. The challenges include the extra drag and erosion when cutting through surface type seaweed, starting in shallow water where the fin is likely to drag along the bottom, and the extreme rake causing problems with balance and power. We engineered the fin to simultaneously consider these constraints, and the design shape is unique as a result.

OUTSTANDING LOW-END POWER & RESISTANCE TO SPIN-OUTS

The designed-for-purpose foil profile delivers outstanding low end power and resistance to spinout, with unmatched recovery behaviour. This means you can run a much shorter fin than other shallow water types for the same amount of power, but with drastically reduced drag and increased condfidence to push at speed. We have achieved this despite running extreme rake angles towards the tip- higher than with other brands, to give you more weed penetration capability where it counts, with a tip shape that doesnt dig into the ground when you have to start really shallow.
