Single fins have been around for nearly a century…
But which one is right for you?
I’ve got seven incredible boards to showcase...
…from a stringerless 6'10 Wayne Lynch replica to an 8'9 Gato Heroi Speed Acid that glides like nothing else.
They force you to slow down, feel the wave, and connect with the roots of surfing.
Think Michael Peterson carving Kirra in Morning of the Earth or Wayne Lynch’s era-defining turns...
These boards are about flow, finesse, and an appreciation for tradition
I’ve ridden hundreds of boards over the years, but these seven stand out for their unique personalities.
And I’ll show you what might just be the fastest board I’ve ever ridden.
