Two weeks ago, I introduced you to Laifron and Jamin Luoto of NVS fins, and they explained how using

higher quality materials and better tooling has allowed them to design a fin foil with a more

refined front edge, which creates less disturbance off the back of the fin, i.e. less drag. And this small detail increases both speed and control

for any configuration from single fin to a five fin setup. And being small has actually allowed

them other unique opportunities as well, like doing small batches of more innovative designs,

one of which led to a big design advancement

through a collaboration with Maurice Cole.

Actually through Maurice, we got introduced to Troy Clutton who designed the sea dry fins.

He's in Australia.

And that was a massive project.

That probably took about About a year.

Yeah.

Because of the shape of the fin, trying to get the foiling perfect, have smooth transitions

was a bit more of a challenge than a traditional shaped fin.

Okay.

But it's, take a look at it. You'll see we can do anything.

Yeah, yeah. And it doesn't have to be 150, 200, 300 sets. We can have small shapers come in and say,

hey, listen, I've been wanting to do this template for a little while,

you know, and they wouldn't even necessarily think to approach

any other companies.

Can you guys do it?

Yeah, absolutely.
