  • The 9" TPU Race Center Fin brings race shape performance to a flexible TPU build. You get the tracking and glide of a true race profile, with the peace of mind that the fin will bend on impact instead of breaking. It is a great pick for paddlers who race or tour in mixed conditions, where shallow takeouts and rocky launches are part of the day.

    Why paddlers choose it

    • Race profile shape adds tracking and glide on long efforts
    • Flexible TPU absorbs impact, ideal for paddlers without bombproof launches
    • Black finish looks fast and pairs cleanly with most board graphics
    • Lighter and more durable than a stock plastic race fin
    • Universal US fin box fit works with the NIXY Malibu and most race or touring SUPs

    Best for

    • Race paddlers who launch off rocky or shallow shorelines
    • Touring on mixed lake, river, and bay routes
    • Paddlers who have broken stiff race fins before
    • Anyone who wants race shape without race day fragility

Good to know
What is the 9 inch TPU race center fin designed for?

Race shape performance with impact forgiveness. The 9 inch race profile delivers the tracking and glide you want for fitness paddles, weekend racing, and long-distance touring, while the flexible TPU layup bends on impact instead of breaking on a rocky takeout. Black finish pairs cleanly with most board graphics.
Will the 9 inch TPU race fin fit my board?

Yes if your board has a US fin box. That covers the full NIXY G5 lineup (Newport, Venice, Huntington, Monterey, Manhattan, Malibu) and most race or touring SUPs from other brands. Screw and plate included.
How is the 9 inch TPU race different from the 9 inch race nylon?

Material. Both share the same race shape. The race nylon is stiff, which transfers paddle power into glide most efficiently but cracks on hard impact. The TPU race bends on impact and returns to shape, which trades a small amount of stiffness for serious impact protection. Pick TPU for rocky launches and mixed conditions, nylon for clean water races.
How do I install the 9 inch TPU race fin?

Slide the fin tab into the US fin box, drop in the included screw and plate, finger-tighten. Tool-less on most installs. TPU is forgiving on threads, so do not overtighten.
What is the 9 inch TPU race fin made of?

Flexible TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) with a race-shape profile, black finish. TPU bends on impact, which means a rocky launch or shallow takeout that would crack a stiff race fin just nudges this one out of the way. Lighter and more durable than a stock plastic race fin.
When should I pick the 9 inch TPU race over a carbon race fin?

Choose the TPU race when you race or tour in mixed conditions, when shallow takeouts or rocky shorelines are part of the day, or when you have broken a stiff race fin before. Choose carbon when you race on clean water, want maximum stiffness, and can baby the fin between sessions.
