Located in Cape Hatteras. No bots.Signature Skindog side byte fins produced in collaboration with UK longboard champ Ben Skinner.
Paired with the Skindog Single Fin, the Skindog Side Bytes create a 2 + 1 setup that enhances drive, stability, and maneuverability. The side bytes add speed and control, allowing surfers to handle critical sections and maintain stability through sweeping turns.
The Skindog Single Fin and Side Bytes setup offers a dynamic and versatile longboard experience, ideal for both traditional and progressive surfing styles.
PC + AirCore construction uses a pressed polyurethane foam core that mimics the geometric foil of the fin. AirCore technology reduces the amount of fiberglass required in the RTM molding process, making the fin much lighter while allowing total manipulation of the flex.
