Darren Handley Design 'DHD' shaper fin. A versatile fin ideal for controlled power turns in critical sections.

Featuring a new sleek graphic and a modified smaller centre fin, the new DHD template is built for increased speed and fast tail release. Designed with a subtle texture on the top half of the fin to reduce friction the performance of this fin is second-to-none.

We sat down with DHD to talk through the development and features of the fin.

By reducing the size of the centre fin, we have minimised drag and increased overall speed of this reliable all-rounder. This also allows the surfer to overpower the fin when executing dynamic turns, and release quickly out of long rail to rail carving.
