Firewire Machado Fin
Best high performance upgrade for surfers seeking speed and fluid flow.
This setup bridges the gap between the loose, glide-heavy feel of a twin fin and the reliable control of a thruster. By adding a small rear trailer to an upright twin template, it offers the perfect balance for surfers who want to draw tight, controlled lines without sacrificing speed.
