The Ola Flex series is a result of a collaboration with Michele Puliti of Ola Surfboards. The classic outline was inspired by the master, and iconic innovator George Greenough. True to Greenough's highly developed understanding of hydrodynamics and performance, the Ola template was designed with a flared base and moderate rake, providing drive and stability. A progressively tapered outline and flexible tip enhances maneuverability and playfulness through turns.
Apex Flex construction; made with a solid piece of precision foiled Volan fiberglass for increased flex. The Volan glass and optimized weave orientation produce a very high performance flex pattern that extends through much of the body of the fin, rather than just the tip.
The Ola is highly versatile longboard fin that will work well in most any surfboard: classic noseriders, high performance longboards, mid-lengths, eggs, and Smaller 2 plus 1 fun-boards. Most people describe the feeling as free and fluid.

NVS APEX SERIES FINS
NVS Apex Series Fiberglass Fins: The Pinnacle of Performance.
Better Materials:
- Apex: Made using G10; an industrial grade fiberglass, which is manufactured to the highest quality standard. Made by heating special fibers with epoxy resin under intense pressure in order to make a perfect panel; they eliminated the errors which can occur by using a hand layup. By heating the fibers and resin under pressure NVS is left with the ideal resin to fiber ratio in order to maximize strength and decrease weight.
- Apex Flex: Made using Volan Fiberglass for increased flex through the body of the fin.
Better Foiling:
One of the main benefits to NVS' Apex line of fins is that each fin is cut on a CNC machine using the exact foil profiles NVS developed.
- SeriesIII: The benchmark of high performance. NVS uses a very specific foil that was derived from a series of NACA foils whose purpose was to increase laminar flow (speed) while decreasing turbulent flow (drag). This translates to a fin that allows for faster/easier generation of speed and has a wider angle of attack, which means you won’t lose as much speed while bottom turning or going through hard cutbacks.
- Concave: or inside foils are used on board where you want easier rail to rail transitions. Concave foils will generate more hold at slower speeds but will not be able to go as fast as flat foiled fins.
- Retro: Used on some longboard fins such as the Da Clutch and Gypsy which feature a more period appropriate foil to suite the classic board designs.
Better Manufacturing:
By using cutting edge CNC machines and precise designs they machine cut each fin in order to have the perfect foil and finish. All NVS fins are designed 100% in house using advanced 3D software.
This is what makes the Apex Series G10 fins the strongest most high performance fins in the world.
