Traditional Keel fin Fish Surfboards
The traditional fish surfboard is a unique and iconic design that has captured the essence of surf culture for decades. Recognized for its distinctive swallowtail, wide nose, and shorter length. The fish is built for speed and maneuverability, particularly in smaller or less powerful waves.
Originating in the 1960s, this board was a game-changer for surfers looking to catch waves in conditions that would normally be difficult with conventional boards. Its compact, twin-fin design allows for quick turns and an exciting, fluid ride, making it a favorite among both retro enthusiasts and modern surfers alike. The fish surfboard embodies a timeless fusion of innovation and style, with a rich history that continues to influence surfing today.
In the UK, where consistent, large waves aren’t always a guarantee. The fish surfboard proves to be an ideal choice for those seeking to make the most of smaller, less powerful surf. The design of the fish makes it perfect for the often smaller, mushier conditions found in summer months. Its shorter length and maneuverability allow surfers to easily navigate these conditions, offering a fun, responsive ride even when the waves aren’t massive.
Our traditional fish surfboard is crafted with precision and expertise. Featuring a deep butt crack that enhances the board’s performance and adds to its distinctive look. This tried and tested shape has been perfected over decades of hand-shaping, ensuring that each board delivers exceptional speed, stability, and maneuverability. Whether you’re carving through smaller summer waves or taking on more challenging conditions.
Available in both twin fin and quad fin setups, our fish offers versatility for riders seeking different handling styles. When you custom order a fish from us, we offer a range of design modifications, allowing you to tailor the board to your specific needs and preferences. From custom tail shapes to unique color schemes. Our fish boards are made to fit your riding style while maintaining the authentic, classic performance that has stood the test of time.
