HANALEI FINS BLOG

Where all the latest news about HANALEI FINS can be found, we tend to put all of our announcements here, as well as information about new designs and the testing process.

Some of the historical blog posts from previous years are slowly being moved into the new blog. Initially, all of the most interesting ones will be moved over. Eventually we hope to get all of the old posts up here so they are accessible.

Most of the new posts also get placed on our Facebook page, so they can be read there as well.

WNG-600E Elliptical Wing Center Fin
SPLT QUAD Split-keels
Written by: | Posted on: | Category:

This is the latest fin design we have been working on for testing this winter. It is another of our split keel designs, but this one differs from any of the current versions.

We have also adjusted the shape of the cutaway to make it a little more friendly for cutting FUTURES bases.

Additionally, ...
