Material and manufacture of the fins

Surfboard fins are made by default from injection molded and 3D molded plastics such as polycarbonate or Lexan. Optimized fins in the professional field, which only play an interesting role for surfers with longer experience on the surfboard, are made of fiberglass (GRP) or carbon. These surfboard fin models are often lighter in weight, have improved stability, special angles and a performance advantage for the surfboard, which is noticeable in the high-end area of surfing.
