Slip In
Single Fin Redefined
The Slip In takes the classic single-fin design into the future with a radical tail design that deliver a dynamic performance. The innovative concave outline of the tail allows you to draw classic lines, stall in the barrel, or turn like a tri-fin – all with the superior speed of a single-fin. We even developed a new flex fin with Futures to get the most out of the Slip In. It’s up to you and your imagination now.

Surfer Magazine
“Many who’ve dismissed Meyerhoffer’s shapes have done so purely on principle. Most who have ridden them, however, have raved about them, touting their ability to turn, gain speed, and nose ride exceptionally. At the very least, they’ve been appreciated for allowing the rider to experience waves in a new way.”

Reviews
The Slip In was first revealed at The Boardroom Surfboard Show October 2012 where it won “Best in Show”. It was developed for the last year with over 30 prototypes tested by our ambassadors all over the world. The Slip In was featured in October issue of Surfer Magazine where free surfer Josh Mulcoy explores the abilities of the board in a short by Patrick Trefz.
“I thought there is no way in hell that this will work…I’ve ridden a ton of single-fins and that board rides like no other. It has all the good qualities of a single-fin, but at the same time, you can turn it on a dime… It has the best of both worlds: the thruster feel and the speed, You move up on it and it goes so fast”
Josh Mulcoy, Free Surfer
