Suitability
This Twin Fish surf board is perfect for small builds in waves up to 1.5 m (shoulder height). It has a volume of 35 L which sufficiently guarantees lift for an easy take-off even when the wave is not strong. If conditions become more powerful, the board has a better contact with the waves.

The advantages of EPS/EPOXY boards
We chose this type of construction for our surfboards, because it offers numerous advantages.
The epoxy resin is more resistant to impacts and dents than polyester resin, which makes the board more hard-wearing.
The board is more reactive and can gather more speed
The EPS foam (expanded polystyrene) floats better, meaning that, for the same volume, you have more buoyancy than with a polyester /polyurethane board.
Protective cover.
The board has a Flexi Hex® honeycomb case inside a sturdy box.
This case is reusable in your surfing cover to protect it while transporting.
Fin assembly
To attach the FCS1-type fins into the FCS2 plugs, simply insert them and, without forcing, tighten the small side screws provided in the plug (box).
An adaptor is not required.
