Gabriel Medina's three WSL world titles were built on the reliability of the Performer template. From day one, Gabs has used this fin template on all his boards, in every location, but as his physical strength has grown, his signature set has required an adjustment.
Medina's signature set now features a reduced center fin, which offers a balance of speed, flow, and fast, easy tail release.
The Performer template has long been celebrated for its versatility, delivering a consistent and reliable feel in a wide range of surf conditions, from beach breaks to point breaks.
"Yes, I really like the Performer template; it's the one I've used for many years, since the beginning of my career. My preferred size is XL." - Gabriel Medina
This latest GM Performer version also incorporates AirCore technology: a custom flex pattern that sits between PC and PC Carbon constructions. This flex finds the perfect balance of drive, power, and explosiveness in turns.
"The flex is very consistent; I use it everywhere, in both big and small waves... The Performance Core construction works for anyone and in any condition."
Medina's fin has also undergone a graphic update to better represent his style, favorite colors, and ease of matching with the board.
"I watched some videos of myself surfing with the new fins and they are really beautiful. They have a beautiful and classic look, and I like how the black and white match any board." - Gabriel Medina
Another element that sets this template apart is the concave inner face, known as Inside Foil Technology (IFT), a design feature that improves hold on the wave face and helps surfers maintain speed throughout the turn.
