 |
| With boards and sails offering more range of use than ever, the fin is often something that is overlooked yet it is one of the most vital ingredients to achieve the perfect performance synergy. |
 |
| Think of a fin like a set of tyres on a car; using a set intended for the speed track won't then suit an off-road environment and vice versa. Match the fin to the board style you are riding, the prevailing water surface conditions and also the amount of engine power. |
|
| Most boards are supplied with a fin optimised for the mid-range of power input and average water conditions, so often an extra fin or two can make a huge improvement to your on-water experiences. |
 |
 |
|
| Select as the market leaders spend much time and effort ensuring all of their fins are well developed and produced to the highest quality. |
|
| The manner in how a fin flexes and twists has a huge bearing on the amount of lift generated and how controllable it can remain. |
|
| With the technology Select use it is possible to adjust these characteristics without having to compromise the performance by making a fin too thick and draggy or too thin and unpredictable. |
|
| Opting to use a bad fin in a good board can ruin the performance! |
|
 |
|
| As you can see there are plenty of different fins on offer in our current range. In some cases the choice is obvious, but often it is subtleties in size and style make the huge performance difference. |
 |
| Excessive lift often causes: | |  | Control problems. | | Poor manoeuvrability. | | Reduced speed potential. | | Bad rider techniques. | | | | | Insufficient lift can cause: | | | Early planing issues. | | Lack of upwind ability. | | Spin-outs when going fast. | | Board feels dull and slow. | | | |
 |
| Please refer to each specific fin page for a guide on what each is intended for and board-sail size compatibility. Any Q's please ask! |
