Like all other K4 fins, the K4-Fins Dugong is made from fibre-reinforced plastic. The new model is available in sizes from 14 to 20 centimetres in length - making the Dugong interesting for wave, freestyle and small freemove boards. The 18 and 20 centimetre lengths are also available as Powerbox versions (i.e. for use as a single fin).
If you are looking for a complete thruster or quad setup, K4 also offers the matching front fins as a seagrass version. ("Dugong Fronts").
Dugongs belong to the manatee family
The name and the idea for the logo with the manatee came from Steffi Wahl and Frithjof Blaasch. The two are well-known Baltic Sea locals and are therefore very familiar with seaweed. The desperate and, of course, not entirely serious idea of releasing manatees at the Baltic Sea spots to eat the seagrass is no longer an issue, as Steffi is more than happy with the new Finns. "Great speed, the seaweed just doesn't matter anymore and the board reacts well"Steffi reported enthusiastically after the first test. She is particularly happy with the handling as a twinser.
K4-Fins Dugong can be ordered from many surf shops or at www.k4fins.com
With a price of 44.95 euros per rear fin and 23.95 euros per front fin, you should be able to make friends. K4 even donates three per cent of the proceeds from the sale of the Segrass fins to sirenian.org an organisation that campaigns for the conservation of dugongs.
