Product Construction
Performance Core + AirCore
Performance Core (PC) fins are made using a multi-layered resin transfer molding process. The flex pattern in PC fins extends progressively from the base through to the tip, helping the surfer to maintain drive and hold through a turn. This versatile fin Construction is light and can be used in a variety of different conditions. Fins with AirCore Technology feature a pressed polyurethane foam core that mimics the geometric Foil of the fin. AirCore technology reduces the amount of Fiberglass required in the RTM molding process making it much lighter while allowing total manipulation of the flex.
