It’s a fin-tastic issue to kick-off the year with healthy dollops of travel and technique thrown in, plus some important environmental news from Jake Miller and Keith Teboul’s trip to the Marshall Islands, where they found a contrast to ocean perfection.
OK, so it’s a new decade but maybe you’ve not get enough cash for a fancy new multifin board? If you’re feeling brave, enough we might have a solution for you thanks to the Thruster Project in our Spotlight on Thrusters and Trifin boards. We’ve quizzed some key players in the three-fin movement and, if you read closely, you’ll notice some contradictions, but that generally there’s consensus on when three’s good company, and when four might be a crowd. (That’s if you’re not playing the field as Single or flirting with Twins.)
Speaking of Quads, if you’re feeling flush and nervous about drilling holes in your board, then Simmer Style might have the perfect new board for you. You can see what shaper Ola Helenius and rider Kai Katchadourian have say about their venture out of the sail loft and into the shaping room, and hear about their findings with Thrusters, Quads, Singles, Rocker Lines and much more inside.
