The First 5 Fin Bonzer









Luckily the Campbell brothers held onto the first 5 fin Bonzer they made back in 1983. The surf photos are of Duncan Campbell test driving “the mothership” on the North Shore. Read about the Bonzer development on the Bonzer5.com timeline, Grow Fins.

    That shape let alone the new dimension in fin set up seems way a head of its time for ’83. You need to surf that!

    saw that board at Sacred Craft and was surprised at how close the overall shape it was to a pretty modern board of today. definitely ahead of it’s time for ’83. or have we not progressed much since then?
