Twin-Fin Set - Futures Compatible: Designed for seamless performance with hybrid-style twin fins, Ryan Lovelace crafted this template to bridge the classic keel fin's stability with the upright, pivot-friendly designs of the late ’70s.
Hailing from Santa Barbara, Ryan is one of the world’s most respected hand-shapers, known for redefining the alternative surfboard scene. By blending timeless designs with modern innovation, he has carved out a unique niche in surfboard design. The Lovelace Piggyback Keel exemplifies this approach—a progressive evolution of the traditional keel fin.
This updated keel fin set offers the drive and fluid turning of a classic keel but with reduced area, making it more versatile and performance-oriented. Suitable for a range of conditions, from beach breaks to point breaks, the Lovelace Piggyback Keel allows you to draw out smooth, flowing lines in solid surf while retaining the effortless twin fin glide.
