| Wavegrinder Surfboard Fins | About the Fin |
Combining NASA-proven winglet technology with sailing’s America’s
Cup-proven hydrodynamics principles, the WavegrinderTM surfboard fin
(patent 7244157) helps surfers surf faster,
for longer, and catch more waves.
Existing surfboard fins use 1950s technology that has evolved little.
But the CAD-designed, USA-made Wavegrinder fin uses a proven NACA foil
combined with proven NASA winglet technology in a high-aspect-ratio,
low-sweepback angle, short-root profile fin that has a
small-surface-area shape that nonetheless creates high lift with low
drag over a wide range of angles of attack. What all this means is you
can surf better for longer, and can catch more waves.
Currently configured to fit standard center fin boxes on longboard
surfboards, design adaptations are in the works for longboard side fins,
for shortboard surfboard thruster fins, and for both windsurfers and
kiteboards. Some users report excellent results
on single-fin shortboards.
Made with bulletproof GE Lexan polycarbonate, 9.25
inches tall.
The WavegrinderTM Surfboard fin
applies science to the art of surfing. We think it's a great ride. Ask
your local surf shop for a demo, or buy one from us.
