Too often when the gust hits, we back off because conventional fins won’t handle it. Tribal Powermax is like a set of fat tyres without the drag penalty. In wild conditions this fin excels. You can abuse it and it still hangs in — giving you total confidence to keep the power on in even outrageously choppy conditions.
IF YOU HAVE THE POWER, USE IT!
DEVASTATING TOP SPEEDS
Back on flat water, you can bear deep off the wind without the nose dropping as you accelerate — resulting in devastating top speeds on bigger boards for an upright fin.Hit the end and crank back upwind without the frustration of dedicated speed fins.
SLALOM YOUR THING?
Round the turns, the swept tip gives ultra stable gybing performance. On the exit — simply push harder, earlier, to leave the pack in your wake and stay in front. No need to tiptoe!
TRIBAL WINDSURFING OPTIMISED PROFILE
In the lulls or for relaxed cruising, this fin offers superb low drag due to the use of Tribal Windsurfing Optimised Profile. You won’t notice the fin. It will disappear from your concern. If you don’t need all the power it can handle, go smaller in size for bonus drag reduction. We recommend using 2cm smaller than normal to get the best match. But if you want extra power in a given size, then these fins deliver in spades, with zero compromise on top speed and efficiency!

FAQ
My fin doesn't fit in my board...
In practice, we see many boards with different boxes, so it’s always hard to get the perfect fit for all boards. Please do not be afraid to sand the box down a bit to get the perfect fit for your board. Also be aware, that if a fin sinks a bit into the box, it is not an issue. However, a fin that sticks out above the box is an issue and needs sanding down. If you do not feel comfortable with the fit, please do not hesitate to contact us.
For which fin boxes do you produce your fins?
We make our fins in Tuttle, Deep Tuttle and Power Bases. Per model you can specify what base you would like as long as the desired base is available for that certain fin.
