The double side fins maintain looseness with better rail control in turns, while the combination of bottom contours and fin design provide faster water flow and more projection. Our 5-Fin provides a number of advantages over a standard thruster.
Fin drag is reduced resulting in easier paddling and faster trim speed.
The board picks up speed sooner after an angled take off. It's quicker and more lively rail to rail. And you get more projection and flow through turns. The five-fin setup also extends the range of wave sizes a board can handle. And the sweet spot on longboards is not as large or forgiving as on a tri-fin.
