SMERNIK FUTURES FINS simon 5-fin

The Simon Anderson 5-fin setup was designed by the inventor of the thruster for the larger surfer looking for big-board performance. The honeycomb material combined with the flat foil offers a stiffer flex pattern ideal to hold powerful carves while the Simon Anderson 5-fin offers full templates for both thruster and quad options, making this fin ideal for the bigger surfer or a board with a wide tail.

RIDE NUMBER (BETA)
7/10
To help simplify things, we’ve assigned a single “ride number” to each of our fins. This number is based on a variety of factors including the fin’s flex, shape, and foil. Fins with lower ratings are stable and predictable while higher ratings are more responsive and lively. Ride Number is currently BETA, so expect more info soon....


foil
FLAT Foil
Flat foiled fins break free sooner, and are better ay 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.
