Product Information
Full details
The Deflow KEEL QUAD fins are designed for intermediate to advanced surfers looking to optimize their quad-fin setup for better maneuverability without sacrificing stability. These fins excel at providing significant drive and hold during powerful carves while solving the common issue of stiffness often found in traditional quad configurations; however, users should note that the specialized upright rear template requires a more active surfing style to maximize the benefits of the tight-radius turning capability.

FAQs
Are these fins suitable for big waves?
While they provide excellent drive, they are primarily optimized for small to medium, everyday surf conditions.
Can I use these on a twin-fin board?
No, these are specifically engineered for a quad-fin box configuration.
What does the flat foil do?
A flat foil provides a predictable, stable feel that helps with control during high-speed turns.
Are these made for a specific board type?
They perform best on boards with wider tails that benefit from the extra surface area and turning assistance.
How often should I clean the fin boxes?
You should rinse the board thoroughly with fresh water after every session to prevent salt crystals from hardening in the boxes.
Troubleshooting
Fins feel loose in the fin box
Check if the grub screws are fully tightened. If the screw is stripped, replace it with a fresh unit to ensure a secure fit.
Board feels sluggish in small waves
Ensure you are using the full quad set. Sometimes removing the rear fins can change the flow; however, for this model, the set is designed to work in tandem for optimal drive.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Increased drive and speed generation
- Improved turning response compared to standard quad sets
- Stable hold during long, powerful carves
- Lively and responsive feel on wider-tailed surfboards
Cons
- Requires more active input for tight turns
- May feel too loose for beginners preferring maximum stability
- Specific design intent may not suit narrow-tailed high-performance shortboards
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure your surfboard is equipped with a standard quad-fin box configuration (FCS or Futures depending on your specific version). When installing, ensure the fins are seated fully into the box to avoid movement.
- Front Fins: Base 137.3mm / Height 114.3mm
- Rear Fins: Base 101mm / Height 112.5mm
Care instructions include rinsing the fins with fresh water after every session to prevent salt buildup within the fin boxes. Regularly inspect the grub screws to ensure they are not corroded, as this ensures your fins remain secure during high-pressure maneuvers.
