The Fin
Wayne Rich's trailer fin, Futures compatible solid fiberglass, in smoke or red.
A trailer is the small fin that turns a twin into a 2+1 — or adds a little tail hold to a single. It is not there to steer; it is there to stop the tail sliding out further than you asked.
This one
Rich's trailer is small and raked back — it settles a twin's tail through the middle of a turn without adding the straight-line stiffness a taller trailer does.
Specifications
The whole point is restraint: the stubby, minimal-height shape adds just enough area to change the way the board holds, without piling on so much fin that it turns the twin into a quasi-thruster.
Add this behind a twin — ideally the Wayne Rich Twins — when the board feels too loose in steeper or faster waves and you want stability and a touch more drive without rewriting the twin's character. If you want the board as free and drifty as possible, leave the center box empty.
The Wayne Rich Trailer is a small center trailer fin designed by Wayne Rich to pair with his own Twins, though it works behind most twin templates. It is sold as a single fin in Futures-compatible solid fiberglass by True Ames. The stubby, minimal-height template drops into the center box behind a pair of twin fins.
Mentioned in the review — Wayne Rich Twins — not something we carry.
