3-FISh

The 3-Fish was developed in response to demand from my progressive East Coast USA collaborators who wanted the speed and paddle power of a fish, but with the familiar feel and predictability of a thruster. The result is a true high-performance fish that bridges the gap between traditional fish designs and modern shortboards.

Featuring a fuller, rounded nose, a wide point positioned slightly forward of centre, and a refined semi-pulled swallow tail, the 3-Fish carries volume where it's needed for effortless paddle power while maintaining a performance-oriented tail for precise control. A low entry rocker with a subtle increase in tail rocker creates excellent glide and speed while allowing the board to fit comfortably into tighter arcs and more critical sections. A high-performance single concave transitioning into a double concave through the fin cluster generates lift, acceleration and exceptional drive while maintaining a lively, responsive feel under the back foot.

Designed around a three-fin configuration, the 3-Fish can be ridden as either a 2 + 1 for a smooth, flowing feel with added release, or as a thruster when maximum drive, control and vertical performance are required. This versatility allows surfers to fine-tune the board to suit both the conditions and their own surfing style.

Designed to perform in everything from knee-high summer surf to powerful overhead waves, the 3-Fish offers the speed of a fish with the confidence and versatility of a performance shortboard. Whether you're linking smooth carving turns or attacking more critical sections, it delivers predictable performance across an exceptionally wide range of conditions.

I've ridden my own 3-Fish throughout the South Shore of Oahu with incredible results, and if I could only own one board, this would probably be it. It's also a proven performer on the US East Coast, where South Carolina standout Georgia Brown won multiple East Coast titles on her custom 3-Fish built in our lightweight CEPX construction.

Available with a swallow tail from 5'4" to 6'2", the 3-Fish is the perfect choice for surfers wanting one board that delivers speed, versatility and high-performance surfing across almost any conditions.
