Innovation has always sat at the heart of surfboard design. This Klemm Bell high performance model Malibu surfboard features an unusual hatchet fin. The idea behind the fin is that the increased area lower down on the fin helps maintain directional stability when riding on the nose of the board. At the same time this board features less volume and more sharply curved rails to aid in quicker turning. With the first world championships held at Manly in 1964 competition/performance model surfboards had become both fashionable and functional.
