The Firewire Machado Twin Keel Fin Set is the ultimate companion for your fish surfboards, designed by legendary surfer Rob Machado. Specifically crafted with the Too Fish in mind, these fins bring the classic sensations of traditional keels while delivering modern versatility for playful, dynamic surfing.
Designed by Rob Machado
Rob’s inspiration for these fins comes from his early experiences riding hand-foiled keel fins on Skip Frye fish boards during the filming of Seedling. Over the years, he refined his approach, combining the classic drive and hold of traditional keels with more curve in the trailing edge for a livelier feel in the pocket. The result is a fin set that maintains stability at speed while pivoting effortlessly when you want to add looseness and flow to your turns.
