THURSO SURF SUP Click Fin touring center fin — 9in depth, 5.5in base, screwless click-in for improved tracking

THURSO SURF SUP Click Fin is a screwless touring center fin that clips into standard US fin boxes to boost stability and tracking for paddleboards without tools.

Whether you’re heading out for a long-distance paddle, commuting across calm bays, or simply upgrading a longboard or SUP, this replacement fin is designed to offer a predictable, efficient glide. Built with durable materials and a no-tool click system, it trades complicated hardware for quick installation and consistent performance in varied water conditions.

How does this fin improve my SUP’s tracking on long tours?

The fin’s 5.5-inch base and 9-inch depth create a hull-following profile that reduces yaw and keeps the board moving straighter with each stroke. That increased lateral resistance helps convert paddle power into forward momentum, so you spend less effort correcting your line.

• 5.5" base for secure grip in the fin box
• 9" depth for longer keel-like tracking
• Profile tuned to minimize side-slip on flat water

Will this fit my board and how easy is installation?

The fin is made to slide into standard US fin boxes (also called US boxes) and lock without screws, making it a reliable option for many touring and all-around SUPs. It will not fit Quick Lock style fin systems, so check your board’s fin box type before buying.

• Compatible with standard US fin boxes
• Screwless click-in design for tool-free fitting
• Not compatible with Quick Lock fin boxes

What materials and durability can I expect from the THURSO SURF SUP Click Fin?

Constructed from robust plastics and reinforced components, the fin is built to withstand repeated use in fresh and saltwater without deforming or failing under normal paddling loads. The design focuses on longevity while keeping weight low so it won’t slow your board.

• High-quality, impact-resistant materials
• Engineered to resist wear from contact and transport
