FIBERGLASS QUAD KEEL FIN SINGLE TAB
$113.00
Designed for mid-length fish surfboards, these quad keel fins are compatible with Futures fin boxes. Beyond their unique quad performance, these fins offer a balanced speed and turn performance, characteristic of keel fins.
Widening the base of the fins enhances elongation (drive ability) during turns, while the strong sweep allows for larger turns compared to general quad fins. Compatible with fish boards, they enable a stretched turn experience.
In addition to nanazero surfboards, they also fit surfboards with Futures fin boxes.
*Please ensure to check the specifications before placing your order.
*This set includes 4 pieces for the front, back, left, and right. Install them with the logo side facing outward.

Term related to Fin
We will explain the terminology and principles behind the elements that define the characteristics of fins:
Base
The length of the horizontal part where the fin meets the surfboard.
A longer base enhances drive power and facilitates speed gain. Conversely, a shorter base improves turning performance and makes turning easier.
Depth
The length (height) of the vertical part of the fins protruding from the surfboard into the water.
Greater depth increases stability but also increases turn resistance. Conversely, smaller depth results in smoother turns but sacrifices stability.
Area
The area where the fin extends outside the fin box.
A larger area enhances stability and drive power but increases resistance. Conversely, a smaller area facilitates easier turns.
For longer boards and heavier riders (and boards), a larger area is required.
Sweep
The angle of inclination of the fin.
A greater sweep angle increases stability and drive power but also increases turn resistance. Conversely, a smaller sweep angle improves turning performance, results in smoother turns, and reduces turning radius.
Foil
Bulges on both sides of the fins.
Foil controls water flow. The "50/50" configuration, with bulges on both sides, is commonly used for center fins. The "Flat" configuration, flat on the inner surface and bulging on the outer surface, is commonly used for side fins.
Cant
The angle at which the fin is tilted from a vertical angle of 90 degrees to the bottom surface of the surfboard.
Center fins are usually at 0 degrees (perpendicular to the board), while side fins are angled a few degrees. This angle increases water resistance when the board is tilted, enabling sharp turns.
