The FIN System™ is a revolutionary Patented new upgrade for the Surf Adapter that allows riders to alter the pivot angle of their Surf Adapter. This Kit can be added to any existing Skateboard setup.

The FINs can be added in 2 configurations, in addition to a standard 150° Surf Adapter configuration. One configuration is Super Carve 145° and the other is Mega Pump 155°. Super Carve gives you a more responsive turning experience, and lets you carve very tight maneuvers in tight spaces. Mega Pump is a lighter feeling and allows you to efficiently drive the board with small pumps over long distances.

We are very excited to be offering this system to our riders! We hope that you find the FIN System as transformative and fun as the Surf Adapter itself!

Fin system= Holy Grail of e(surf)skateboarding.

If y'all want to turn the world of asphalt and concrete, plus some grass and or turf floater sections, into your surf (e) skate Park. This is the apex right now, imo. Well, combined with an appropriate surf oriented e-skate such as the meepo flow .Sorry, I couldn't afford an evolve stroke currently. My first skate with the super pump setting was...... A revelation. Slow-medium speed carving is in my wheelhouse but this thing carves at speed also. Stable at 15-20+mph but that's not the fun zone, for me, and I don't want to figure out it's limit in that regard. That's a young man's area of progression and I'm 54. If you like the rail to rail style of surf/snow, this will get you the reps that any other type of skateboarding can not. Durability and construction have been bullet proof for me. This is my second adapter set. My first is prior to the fin system and it has 300+ miles of carving joy and it is still functioning as it was intended. It's working better, imo, it's a bit looser and it's movement is a bit smoother. The gains in super pump mode are without question and I'm hoping it breaks in and just gets better, if that's even possible. I'm so stoked! Thank you Waterborne! You should do a colab with meepo! I could go on but the surf looks junky so I'm going skating.

Front truck bushing

Recently purchased a new Surf Adapter with a fin system (less than a month ago). However, I’ve noticed that it does not perform as expected compared to my older adapter. Specifically, the front adapter does not bounce back when pushed to the side.
After inspecting it, I discovered that the surf adapter bushing was completely broken. Since purchasing, I have only used the adapter in the mega pump configuration. Very disappointed

The FIN System™ is a revolutionary Patented new upgrade for the Surf Adapter that allows riders to alter the pivot angle of their Surf Adapter. This kit can be added to any existing skateboard setup!

The FINs can be added in 2 configurations, in addition to a Standard Surf Adapter configuration. One configuration is Mega Pump and the other is Super Carve.

THREE Distinct riding modes

Each FIN SETTING will be characterized by different pivot angle and ride height. The FIN System has set a new standard for customization of a Surfskate, by allowing for the adjustment of the angle of the primary pivot itself. This angle is the biggest factor in determining how a Surf truck will feel.

DREAM Surf Truck

FIN System

Set your FINs to Super Carve for an increased responsiveness and high performance. Super Carve is a very lively setting that emphasizes how tightly the Surf Adapter can turn within a space, and carve it to pieces!

Remove your FINs to utilize the Standard Surf Adapter Geometry. This geometry was something that we created with the goal of achieving the most universal surf style performane for riders across the world. It's still as fun as ever to ride the Standard setting!

Set your FINs to Mega Pump for a dialed back high performance cruising feel. The Surf Adapter won't lean as deeply into turns, and the flatter deck angle allows you to gently pump this board up to high speeds with minimal exertion, and maximal forward propultion. It can still carve with a distinctly Waterborne fluidity.

What are FINs?

FINs snap into the Surf Adapter's truck holding Pivot arm. They effectively change the angle that the arm rotates on, and in turn change the way that the wheels move as you press on your rails. This is what gives you a totally new feeling.

DESIGN INSIGHT

The Surf Adapter is an extremely robust design that has been mounted onto everything from 12 inch skateboards to 12 foot long skateboards! It has been paired with every truck under the sun, and riden by people on all 7 continets. We believe that the Surf Adapter's design language, aids in it's mission for universal appeal. This rebust design lan guage is why the FIN System works. Had we taken a more common approach, had we coppied an existign design, or had we put any less consideration, we would not have been able to add these clever little wedges to the Surf Adaper without significant further modification. It is only becuase we found the best solution, the bushing, that we can change the pivot angle and still have the same functionality and resilience.

HOW BUSHINGS AFFECT YOUR PERFORMNCE

You can further customize the feel of your Surfskate by swapping the bushings in your Surf Adapter and Rail Adapter. Bushings can make a board feel more stable for a biginner, or fine tune the performance of a pro setup.
