From Australia. Hard to find surfboard fin. Somewhat unusual and rare. Vintage - old stock. Unused in new condition. Local pickup or I can ship. Cheyne Horan, the pro surfer who designed this fin in1984 describes : Ben Lexcen created an exciting new option for surfing. The hydro mechanics of the Starfin make it fast, loose and hydro-dynamic. After riding the starfin design the major advantage is your ability to get from point A to point B quicker than any conventional fin. I’ve had bottom turns together with friends on regular fins and they are still loading up the power on the fin when I’m already powering away at the rate of knots. Also when cutting back normal fins start to loose efficiency and the rail starts to take over. With the starfin you still have a fin vertical in the water allowing cutbacks to gain acceleration. When you kick out of a wave you ride out much longer and faster. When this happens you realize the fin is making the surfboard move faster than a regular fin. If it was any faster it would be an engine!The Starfin will turn on a dime, They are especially good in sloppier surf under six feet (sound familiar… yes that’s the surf we all surf most of the time!) and have a tail lift effect and positive drive that is very easily felt once you ride one. We get excellent feedback from lots of people saying how stoked they are at the performance of the STARFIN.
