Naked Viking Surf
Taylor Knox Arc Thruster
Taylor Knox is one of the most iconic and timeless surfers of his generation. His style is the quintessence of power surfing.
We’ve worked closely with Taylor to fine tune a template that would appeal to his style and still be user friendly for the majority of mere mortals.
Taylor spends a lot of time on rail executing powerful, drawn out lines. He needs fins that provide hold and drive when pushing his boards to their limits.
The Arc fins have relatively wide bases, solid rake and a moderately refined tips. These characteristics paired with our proprietary SeriesIII foiling and Apex Series construction yield fins that feel fast and fluid. Taylor’s Arc fins are highly responsive and offer a dynamic, yet very controlled feel through powerful turns and high speed transitions.
“These fins are fast! Even when laying it down, they have tons of hold.” -Taylor Knox
The Knox fins are part of the Raked family
