Get to know our retro fish (old school fish) and twin fins. All these models are great for drawing classic lines but with a modern feel.
The classic twin fin fish
The classic twin fin fish Classic Twin and Curvalicious, were developed to be used with keel fins. they are inspired by the first models of the late and great Steve Lis. The classic fish is very fast and good on weaker waves. the widened tail has a greater space between fins giving the surfer more back foot support while creating drive. the deep swallow is a key feature in the board’s functionality offering more maneuverability as the water flows within it, having more release.
The flatter tail rocker is great for speed management and flow, but we added a nose rocker to avoid curling in steeper parts of the wave.
The difference between quad and twin retro fish surfboards
The keel fin twin has a more classic surf experience compared to the quad. this is due to the water pressure that flows easier through quad fins than the large area keel fin. That makes the quad more performance-oriented and loser than its keel counterpart.
The Twin keel has fluid speed management through turns, carrying momentum, and generating projection. If you want to learn more about it, read our how to choose a fish surfboard article.
Upright Twin fin surfboards
For the surfer that wants to try a modern and agile twin fin that resembles a performance shortboard, we recommend the 80s Twin, which is a modern take on the classic 80s performance twinnies made timeless by Mark Richards e Ben Aipa.
Our Duo Diamond also is a great choice for someone looking for a well-balanced and comfortable surfboard.
In most cases, surfboards with upright twin fins have a more performance-oriented surf because of their accentuated rocker and narrower tails.
