Frequently Asked Questions About Our Single Fin Surfboards
What is a single fin surfboard?
A single fin surfboard features one central fin that provides stability and a more flowy ride. It promotes a traditional surfing style built around trim and positioning.
What size single fin should I choose?
Your size depends on experience and preference. Longer boards (around 7ft–9ft) offer glide and control for smooth cruising, while shorter single fins feel more responsive and playful.
Are single fins good for beginners?
Yes, particularly for surfers wanting to build solid fundamentals. Single fins encourage balance, foot placement and reading the wave — all key skills for long-term progression. That said, true beginners may be better suited to a longboard or mid-length. Chat with us and we’ll point you in the right direction.
What types of waves are best for single fins?
They excel in small to medium, clean surf — predictable pointbreaks, open faces and rolling beachies. That’s where their flow and classic feel truly shine.
