Master craftsman and pioneer of the shaping industry, Renny Yater, designed this fin to accompany his high-performance single fin known as ‘The Pocket Rocket’, a classic pintail of the early ‘70s era. Its upright profile, combined with a full foil and minimal flex, make it a performance-driven and trustworthy fin. This fin has stood the test of time and become quite versatile, performing well both in a wide spectrum of equipment and in all types of waves. This fin's relative stiffness provides power, drive, and stability–making this fin a great option when the surf is bigger.

Fin Construction: Solid Fiberglass
Designer Name: Reynolds "Renny" Yater
Designer Origin: Santa Barbara, California
Designer Bio: Yater was one of the first commercial surfboard builders of the 1950s, pioneering the "Yater Spoon" in 1964. His hand-shaped, serial-numbered boards with distinctive single-fin templates remain reference points for traditional single-fin craftsmanship, bridging the gap between backyard shaping and industrial production.
