Introducing the Manncave Fin Set by Dan Mann

Introducing Dan Mann's balanced fin template, the Firewire Manncave Fin Set.

Designed to be versatile in various wave types and board types, the Manncave is a balanced or neutral template that sits firmly in the rake world with a slightly more pivot-oriented outline. This is Dan's go-to fin that he uses to test all of his new shapes from grovelers up to long guns - it's the variable he keeps constant during R&D. For Dan, a good fin template makes sense for both drive down-the-line and pocket maneuvers, and the foil has to be perfect (foiled both front to back but also base to tip).

This fin set is constructed from a traditional fiberglass layup, offering a familiar and welcoming flex pattern underfoot, closer to glass-ons. The Quad trailers are an 80/20 foil and a bit more pivoty in design, and the Thruster is a medium size version of the front fins, meant for drive and easy release.
