BLACK PROJECT RAY v2 SUP RACE & TOURING FIN

STABILITY, SPEED, AND SMOOTH TRACKING

Ever wish you had a little extra support when paddling through rough waters or covering long distances? Meet the Ray v2 from Black Project. It’s designed to give you more stability without slowing you down. If you’re moving up to narrower boards or just want a smoother ride on extended paddles, the Ray v2 Fin can help you keep your balance and enjoy every moment on the water.

Why Choose the Ray v2?

1. Built for Stability & Confidence
• Larger size and thicker foil (24 cm / 9.45 in depth & 279 cm² / 43.25 in² area).
• Deep Foil Concept (DFC) for stronger tracking and a steadier feel underfoot.
• Great for windy conditions or rougher waters where extra balance matters most.
2. More Speed Without the Wobbles
• A common misconception is that more stability means less speed. Not here! The Ray v2’s unique foil design delivers reliable stability so you can concentrate on paddling faster.
• Reduced surface area (compared to the original Ray) helps generate extra glide, saving energy over longer outings.
3. Kaizen-Driven Redesign
• Black Project took their top-selling Ray v1 back to the drawing board, applying the Japanese Principle of Kaizen (continuous improvement) for a stronger, smoother, and more efficient fin.
• New features include increased rake angle for better weed-shedding and a shorter cord length for easy tuning in various fin boxes.
4. 30T Pre-Preg Carbon Construction
• Lighter, stiffer, and stronger than traditional materials, giving you a responsive connection to your board.
• Helps maintain speed through every stroke, even when paddling in choppy water.
5. Fresh Artwork
• Updated artwork gives the latest Black Project models a clean, sleek look.
• Includes a premium fin cover, fin screw, leash string, and board sticker - everything you need to get set up right away.

Who Will Love the Ray v2?

• Intermediate Paddlers
  Moving onto narrower boards or seeking extra confidence in unpredictable conditions? The Ray v2 helps you stay upright and focused on your stroke technique.
• Choppy-Water Racers
  Race or train in open-ocean swells, high winds, or busy waterways with less wobbling. You’ll maintain speed and control over distance.
• Distance & Touring Enthusiasts
  Cover longer stretches more comfortably, thanks to improved stability and tracking. Spend more time paddling straight and less time worrying about tipping.
