Silver Tip 8” Blue Fin

Stand-up paddle boards travel at relatively slow speeds. They require a fin capable of providing lateral resistance to keep the board travelling in a straight line, offer a smooth turning circle, and resist the tail moving side to side during the paddling phase. Designed for maximum lateral stability and minimal drag at low speeds. Ideal for 12’6 SUP race boards in low winds and calm waters.

Performance Highlights
Our raked fin design has a surface area of 36.6in2 / 236cm2, provides just enough angle backwards to keep the fin weed-free in most normal encounters with debris. The raked angle means the board can turn smoothly without too much effort from the paddler, using weight transition through the feet, rail to rail, or by use of the paddle or both in combination. Highly raked fins make for wide smooth turns but lack directional stability as supplied with most SUP boards, while straight, high-aspect fins hold a straight line but are hard to manage in the turns. Our design offers the best of both qualities and has been specially created. The fin base is a universal fin box head fitment, with brass pin and screw and plate securement.
