TODD’S TAKE:
- LARGE - XL TEMPLATE || Larger base, rakier tip is really good for creating a lot of drive and holding a rail in turns. I design a lot of drive into my boards using fast rockers and concaves that force the water through the hull contours of the board....this efficient water flow creates both speed and grip - so you don't have to use small fins to reduce drag to try and create speed.
More positive hold and drive off the bottom with springier release out of turns; anyone and everyone will notice the difference.
The best surfing starts with a strong power base; the fundamentals; turns that use both the fins and rails in conjunction with one another. If you rely on simply pushing your fins around, then you are missing out on half the dynamic fun of aggressive surfing.....and you are even missing out if you are a "non-aggressive happy-speed-gliding" kind of surfer. The best way to tap in and harness speed is by using fins that have the right amount of base to create leverage and drive when you push that rail over; however hard or light you push your rails through turns doesn't matter.... what matters is that you still get the same effect from a fin with some base to it - what you get is "get up and go"," speed", "drive", "control", "bigger sprays", "loftier airs", etc....it ranges the gamut and it's positive stuff. Don't get robbed by riding fins that don't have enough base, instead, get on some fins that bring the juice and turn up the froth.

HEXCORE
The Resin Transfer Method (RTM) allows us to construct a composite fin, inside which hexagonal pieces of lightweight coremat displace fiberglass and resin.
The Result? a fin that is up to 25% lighter than a normal fiberglass fin yet retains the same positive flex and amazing drive.
FLAT FOIL
Flat foiled fins break free sooner, and are better at controlling speed. Often surfers prefer them in fast powerful surf where they do not need to create additional speed. If you have muscle memory from riding glass-ons, flat foiled fins will feel the closest.
