Makai Fins Makai - Nine Oh - Single Fin - Surfboard Vin

The Nine-Oh Single Fin is a great choice for surfers seeking maximum agility and performance. It's a consistently turning fin that liberates your board for easier maneuvering. It's suitable for mid-length to longboards and 1 + 2 configurations. Modified in the 1980s with a 5.5" base, making it our most agile and compact fin. This narrow base allows for sharp board movements and a wider turning radius, bringing your turns to life. However, keep in mind that less base and more turning can reduce speed, so heavier surfers may consider adding a +2 side fin for balance, especially on a longboard. Nevertheless, the Nine-Oh is versatile and can be used as a single fin.

The Nine-Oh complements various board types, from fun boards to shorter mid-lengths, longboards, mini mals, eggs, and more. It's not limited to longboards and can fit on boards shorter than 7' to 8' and larger sizes as well. With its stiff flex, this pocket rocket doesn't need extra turning assistance. The front fin screw allows you to position the fin as far back in the box as needed for added stability.

Think of those smaller summer days when you want to enjoy longboarding in small waves or experiment with new lines on your mid-length board during a fun surf session. Even on bigger days, the Nine-Oh can provide a looser feel, making it a versatile choice. Groms on longboards will appreciate the lighter feel this fin offers when catching waves.

All in all, the Nine-Oh is a fun, multi-functional fin that can be mixed and matched on various surfboards. If you're aiming for easier turns and improved performance while surfing, the Nine-Oh is an excellent choice. This template was designed with Honolulu's typically smaller-sized waves in mind, making it suitable for exploring different board shapes due to its adaptable and compatible size.
