The AM1 Alpha, designed by legendary shaper Al Merrick of Channel Islands Surfboards, is a medium-size thruster in the Rake template category. Featuring a balanced flex pattern, this fin’s wider base provides increased drive through turns, making it ideal for high-performance surfing. The centre fin is smaller than the side fins for increased manoeuvrability.
