Every new CI board design is built with a particular fin template in mind. Sometimes we stay with an existing CI fin we know will work perfectly; other times we build something fresh when the need is there. We spend many months and sometimes years dialling in the fins for a new model to ensure our customers and team riders get
the most performance possible from their board. CI’s new BFF (Britt Fish Fin) is the latest template to arise from this never-ending design process that pairs the best fin possible with a new board model.

The BFF is a modern classic keel design that was custom made for our new Feb’s Fish. During initial R&D sessions on the new Feb’s Fish, the AMK and BMT were tested. That AMK provided heaps of down-the-line speed, but felt a tad over-finned during tight, arcing turns. Our BMT felt like not enough surface area was there for stability and drive, and that maybe a more subtle fin tip could provide smoother turns. To solve this, Britt pulled back and rounded the AMK tip and with some other adjustments to it was
able to fine-tune the outline. The result of this is a beautiful and balanced fin that is fast and turns well.
