This surfskate is a complete package from Surfskating's most iconic customizer brands. Waterborne, Riptide, and Surfskate Love came together to make this package that lets you customize every aspect of your Surfskate's ride, from Surf Adapter angle with the FIN System, to Surf Adapter bushing Durometer with the Riptide Sports aftermarket bushing kit. It also includes extras like Bamboo block risers to try in place of the Rail Adapter. This package deal is something that is meant to be tinkered with and dialed in over time to create your absolute favorite surfskate.

Since October of 2020 I've tested more than 60 surfskates, which includes 30 surfskate trucks. The Waterborne FIN system is the most customizable and versatile surfskate truck I've ever seen. Between the FIN modes, bushing durometers, rail adapter, truck options, and more, you have infinite variations to fine-tune your set-up down to the tiniest details. By customizing, the FIN system can do anything you want it to do: pure surf training, street cruising, snaps and slides, long-distance pumping, park and bowl riding, etc.

My favorite Waterborne deck is the Taurus. It's nice and wide where both feet are placed to give you stability and comfort. The rear has the perfect pocket for your back foot. The concave is just right to make it work for any style of riding. And the length and wheelbase work for a wide range of riders.

I love the custom Taurus package Waterborne has put together and wholeheartedly endorse it for any surfskater, beginner to advanced, and for any surfskating application. It gives you everything you need to have multiple set-ups that you love. My custom Waterborne Taurus with the FIN system is now one of my personal favorite surfskates. - Steven Palmer Surfskate Love

Lighter, tighter and faster

Love the new mega pump fin adapter. The Taurus complete is great. The wider stance from my last board is game changing, going further faster with more fun now!

excellent customer service, fast shipping. I will buy from them again.

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.

Customize your Surfskate

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.
