Turbocharge your Surfboard with Boost Electric Surfing Fin

There are an estimated 35 million surfers worldwide, but surfing is one of the most physically demanding sports around; most surfers only get about 8% ride time, spending a majority of their time paddling or lining up for waves. Many surfers, from beginners to avid surfers, don’t get the chance to surf enough to build out the muscle power and stamina needed to constantly paddle. In addition, surfers with physical limitations may not be able to paddle on their own or may have difficulty paddling continuously. The rigors of constant paddling compared to the small amount of actual ride time can be frustrating, can ruin surfers’ overall experience and ultimately, deter some from surfing altogether.

The Boost Surfing Fin is changing all that with an affordable and portable fin giving surfers turbocharged power on demand that can be easily transferred from board to board, allowing surfers to enjoy the Boost Surfing Fin on whichever surfboard best fits their needs on any given day. Weighing in at a light 1.7 pounds, the electric Fin installs in minutes, and its sleek design minimizes drag.

The 800-watt Boost Surfing Fin provides 20 pounds of turbocharged motor thrust and speeds up to 11 mph, letting surfers of all experience levels make the most out of every swell and surf session by helping them paddle faster and longer, reducing burnout so they can catch up to three times more waves. The first 250 pre-orders on Kickstarter will receive a limited availability 50% early bird discount of $149 on the Boost Surfing Fin, and early-bird orders will ship May 2020. The Boost Surfing Fin will retail for $299. Check out the electric Fin in action:

“Every surfer knows that nothing compares to the thrill of riding a wave, but most surf sessions are spent paddling, which requires an incredible amount of muscle strength and endurance,” said Dmitri Kozhevnikov, co-founder and CEO of Boost Surfing. “Using the Boost Surfing Fin, all surfers, regardless of age, experience or paddling strength, have the power to enjoy this incredible sport to the fullest.”

The Boost Surfing Fin was conceived by a team of avid surfers with deep entrepreneurial and technology expertise. Boost Surfing is for anyone interested in surfing, including beginners and avid surfers, who don’t get the chance to surf enough to build out the muscle power and stamina needed to constantly paddle; surfers with physical limitations that may need assistance paddling; and experienced surfers who want to surf longer and catch more waves.

Installing the electric Fin is as easy as installing a regular fin. The Fin is connected to the Boost Surfing mobile app, available on iOS and Android, which surfers can use to tailor the exact power and duration of the boosts based on their experience level and needs. The 800 watt Boost Surfing Fin provides 20 pounds of supercharged motor thrust and speeds of up to 11 mph. Surfers can choose to attach a control button to the top of their board, keep it in their hands or attach it to their wrists. The Boost Surfing Fin can be attached to multiple board types including Longboards, Soft Top, FCS/FCS II, Futures, stand up and paddleboards (SUP). The Fin’s battery charges in 1.5 hours and its battery life provides roughly 2 hours of ride time with approximately 95 8-second power boosts.

“Surfers make up one of the most dedicated, passionate sports communities, and the last thing we want to do is disrupt the art of surfing,” said Alex Ostanin, co-founder and CTO of Boost Surfing. “We kept that in mind as we developed the electric Fin, creating a technologically sophisticated product that doesn’t interfere with the dynamics of surfing but provides the muscle needed to help surfers paddle out and get on a larger number of waves for a more memorable surfing experience.”
