TRANSCRIPT

PHASE 3 is the ultimate in quality and performance.KR has produced a fin with a dense layer of carbon in the base combined with independent carbon strips leading into the tip. This 12k carbon base offers maximum stiffness and drive. The linear carbon strips distribute the energy from base to tip and dramatically enhance flex response.

The AI-1 is one of the most versatile fins in the KR range. Being the most upright signature template, its release characteristics makes it ideal for surfers who want to turn sharp in the pocket. This is all possible through a smaller base width and increased surface area near the tip, keeping

the drive while the majority of the fin is out of the water.

BRUCE IRONS SIGNATURE QUADS JOEL PARKINSON SIGNATURE QUADS

The JP - Q4 is the larger of the 2 in the new Q4 range, designed for Joel’s weight and surfing style. We recommend it for surfers 80 - 100 kg 175 - 220 lbs.

Bruce and Joel, like a lot of surfers have been incorporating more quad and specialty boards into their current quivers.In response we have spent time developing a specific template to compliment and enhance their equipment.

Our design team worked closely with Bruce to create the S-M and Joel to get the M-L quad set.

“Andy thought that the other boys always had something better than him - Especially Parko. When he tried Occy fins he found them drivey but not enough release. When he tried Parko’s fins he loved them but wanted more drive. From this we refined the combination

into what is now the AI forever template - A slightly raked back fin like Occy’s but with the release of Parko’s refined tip. - Claimed them as the best fins he ever rode.

I spent a lot of my life surfing, shaping and traveling with Andy and he was one of the most all-time people I have had the privilege of knowing.He will always be a part of my life and am honored to help and contribute to his legacy being remembered - forever.”

“Missed but never forgotten.” JS.

AI-2.1 is the larger of the two templates. It is recommended for surfers between 65-85 kg or 145-185 lbs as the everyday fin for most conditions.

The AI-2.0 and 2.1 are not only both enhanced with CARBOTUNE construction but the addition of an even stiffer and stronger carbon base. This large weave, 12K carbon works especially well with this new template to provide the perfect balance of flex, drive

and release. Both sizes are developed to replicate the same characteristics in their weight category.
