Honing his shaping skills under the likes of Terry Martin and Hobie surfboards, Tyler makes unique surf craft of all shapes and sizes. His clean, crisp, and stoic style of surfing has made him quite the icon in the world of surfing.

The Modern Keel template by True Ames is a unique keel fin template which boasts many of the traditional elements of a keel fin, but also includes more modern tri fin features. The Modern Keel has a lengthy base and an extended amount of rake that will provide exceptional amounts of drive, however, the trailing edge and tip area match the taper and curve of a modern, performance tri fin allowing for more pivot and release-off the top, and through the end of a turn. They have an 80/20 foil to help release the fin through a turn. They’re built in hexcore construction in an attempt to lighten the load.

These will pair great with a traditional style Lis fish, especially when looking for a little more performance. Or they may be a interesting alternative to a more performance focused twin fin that needs a little more drive and hold than an upright, MR style twin fin setup.
