Description
The MK5R is a modified version of a traditional keel fin designed to keep pace with the ever changing demands of modern four fin surfcraft. Expect explosive drive, speed and enhanced rail to rail transitions.
Highlights
- Generous curves culminate in a ‘beak’ for better flow and release.
- A modified stance offers a balanced ‘pivot’ component.
- Free flowing feel enhanced by cutaway base.
- Balanced template and flat foil fronts for hold and drive.
- Rears foiled at 80/20 to enhance sensitivity & hold.
Specific Details
Fin Templates: The MK5R feature a slightly modified shape, including changes to the sweep (curve) and the tip area, to fine-tune performance characteristics such as flow, drive, and hold.
Changes to Foil Design: By paying close attention to foiling, we optimize the fin’s hydrodynamic properties which directly improves performance aspects such as lift, speed, and maneuverability. (Foil refers to the thickness and curvature of the fin.)
Quad Configuration: The quad setup is known to offer a balance between speed, control, and maneuverability. This set delivers on all counts by applying hold and stability to enhance drive and encourage powerful turns.
Modern Build: Traditionally, keel fins were made from fiberglass or wood. However, the MK5R keel set features advanced construction processes and composite materials, offering increased strength, lighter weight, and improved responsiveness.
Pro-Core RTM Series
The RTM (Resin Transfer Moulding) process produces a lightweight fin with exceptional flex, a smooth feel and an impressive appearance.
