The new DHD Surfboards: Twin Fin Asher Pacey

Today we want to talk to you about the new Twin Fin releases from the Australian brand DHD this summer. It’s the new collection of Mini Twin Fins and Twin Fins from DHD Surfboards. A small delicatessen that comes from the hands of the prestigious international surfer Asher Pacey.

1. The shaper behind the DHD surfboards

Darren Handley, creator of DHD surfboards, grew up in Gold Coast. A unique place in the world with some of the best waves in the world. This great variety of waves let Darren perfect his abilities as a shaper. Today we could say that he shapes some of the best boards in the world. Boards used by the biggest “pros” from the surf world circuit like Mick Fanning, Stephanie Gilmore, Jack Freestone or the recent incorporation in DHD of Owen Wright.

2. Expert reviews: Asher Pacey

The DHD Mini Twin is the retro fish that Asher Pacey uses. A board made for the classic surfer that is looking for a retro board with a two fin system.

Asher Pacey pro surfer “Having the point breaks here on the coast it’s pretty easy to ride different boards and play around. I was riding quads but it was a natural progression to try something a little more lively, a little more loose … and I haven’t looked back since.”

 

3. Testing Asher Paceys DHD Mini Twin

A test run was done during Zierbenas Surf Film Festival. Out of all the boards you could try, there was Asher Paceys Mini Twin. This is what Mikel Aramendi told us in an exclusive for Single Quiver after trying it.

4. The Surfboards material

The famous brand from the Australian shaper Darren Handley combines the best aspects from the two commonly used materials: fiberglass and epoxy. Handley called his new creation “EpoxyCore”. The same Darren said that the trick has distributing the weight. A distribution that gives the greatest control over the board to bury the rail and give the exact and necessary control to complete the maneuver.

Tested by world champion Mick Fanning and Stephanie Gilmore and the pro surfer Jack Freestone with magnificent results.

With spectacular designs and finishes, and with prices starting at 689 euros, the Australian brand looks to bring a revolution to the beaches with its Twin Fins. A phenomenon that we´ve baptized as Twinfinmaia.

You all know that EnelPico we´ve been talking for a year now about the good traits of these types of boards to surf summer waves. The DHD Mini Twin is the perfect board to surf waves that are between 0.5m and 1.5m.

All the models come with tinted resin finish. In his summer catalogue we find ranging colors; from blue, orange, green or pink and even more bold designs, like the one Glen Hall is using to surf in this video.

8. The Twin Fins from Asher Pacey

For these types of Twin Fins we recommend the AP5.79” twin gins from Shapers. This model of twin fins is inspired in the surfing of the freesurfer Asher Pacey. Designed to give the maximum propulsion, velocity and grip the curves that maintain an enjoyable and fluid course.
