The Halo fin was inspired by the Stand Up Paddle boards and wanting to make something very unique and original. Donald wanted to make a fin that would be a lot easier to turn while riding such a massive board. The fins have a very unique shape with the front edge being flat and back edge curved. It almost gives the perspective of the fins being backward, but ironically makes the board turn much easier and forgiving. You don't need to step all the back on the tail like traditional fins, but are able to turn the board a little more further up on the board. While doing R&D on the fins, DT has created many variations of the fin to complement all different kinds of boards, from standard thrusters, mid-lengths, and Longboards, the Halo fin covers them all. Donald makes 14 different size halo center and side fins for endless combination and experimentation. It's a must have for all surfboard quivers.

My experience? Very good fin for all types of boards and size waves.
It feels like they go much faster/less drag than a normal fin. Almost giving
a hydro foil feel to them. I use them in my SUP, carbon fiber fish, and
longboards. It's a fin that everyone should try cause they are so different
than the industry standard.

The fin is designed to give the board more speed and help turn in a smaller arch.
The wider than normal base and the cant (tilt) helps with speed.
Fin has not tip like a regular fin its rounded design release at the bottom and top of the wave
faster than any other fin on the market.
Result of using this fin - you will catch waves easier with more drive and the board will feel
shorter when turning.

Other Halo fins size

7” for performance riding with good drive off the bottom with hold on deep hard turns Weight Call Open Wave Size any size

8” If you are 190 lbs. and above, the fin will be more like a performance feel good for any size wave and good for boards that are 9’4”

feeling for classic style riding but with more ease of turning then a regular style fin.

9” Good for Single fins riding on boards that are up to 10’ or if you have a heavy log and want some drive and want the board to turn
with ease, this is a good choice.
