Akila Aipa's Specialty Twin + 1 set, designed to suit his unique board templates. This high area Twin was built to be pushed hard through turns with a centre fin for added control.
“I have put about five years into this fin, as far as tweaking it to get it where I wanted. It has a medium base and medium surface area but is more upright and has a thinner tip which will offer you pivot on the face and the pocket, while still giving you stability and drive.” - Akila Aipa
Designed by Akila Aipa, son of Hawaiian legend Ben Aipa, this twin fin was developed to complement the design of his “Flat Earth” board model. Overall a smaller set-up that can be used as a twin or throw in the trailer for a more familiar “thruster feel”.
Performance Glass (PG) fins are machine cut from layers of solid fiberglass. These fins are stiff, and are widely used by pro level surfers because the integrity of the flex is maintained under immense force, and in the most extreme of conditions and situations.
