Recommended sizes
5'4"-6'8"
Can be ridden 1-2" shorter than your favorite short board and up to 1/4"-3/8" wider.
Tail Options
The Magnet uses a full tail that works best as a moon or bat. Similar to the Fletcher Four-fin, it has straighter rails and a fuller tail than the other tri fins.

Bat Tail
-
Round Pin Tail
On the Magnet, this is almost thumb-like and will still provide a loose, "skatey" feeling while still being able to lay into wide, drawn out turns.
-
Add Wings
The addition of one or two full wings on the Magnet will narrow a wide tail block while retaining the full outline above the fin cluster.
Types of Tails
Round Pin Tail
- Moves the "sweet spot" slightly farther ahead on the board, in front of the fin cluster.
- Offers a different release & hold for deep carves and more drawn out turns
- Shortens the "effective rail line" and with respect to board length, resulting in less area on the tail to penetrate the wave face so that you can actually sink a section of tail deeper than other templates.
Thumb Tail
- Softens the pivot points on the end of the rail line while keeping a smooth flow like a round pin without taking away the tail width
Squash Tail
- Top to bottom surfing
- Free the tail on all your turns
- HIt the lip and more while you rip it down the line.
Bat Tail
- Offers a more pivotal, snappy feel
- Loosens up the board by having the rail line end shorter
- Relative to other tails, the bat is wider at the block, allowing the rear foot to move further back in to the fin cluster.
- Combines the swallow tail feel but with more stability
Diamond Tail
- Offers an aesthetic alternative to the bat tail while keeping the same performance features
Swallow Tail
- Quick, loose and responsive for snappy turns off the top
- For similar results with a more distinctive look, try our Moon tail
Baby Swallow Tail
- Quick, loose and responsive for snappy turns off the top
- Baby swallow tail is a reduced version primarily used on big wave boards
Deep Swallow Tail
- Quick, loose and responsive for snappy turns off the top
- For similar results with a more distinctive look, try our Moon tail
Moon Tail
- With performance features similar to the swallow tail, the Moon adds a much more distinctive look.
Winged Tail
- Pulls in the outline at the trailing edge of the fins as a way to break the water along the rail line.
- Adds a snappier and more pivotal turning characteristic as opposed to a full rail turn.
Fin Options
The Magnet comes standard as a quad. We recommend this board with smaller yet fuller, high aspect ratio fins from 4 1/4"-4 1/2" with 4" trailers.
- Choose from Future or FCS
Also Available
Outline
The Magnet is similar to the Fletcher Four-Fin and Rat Skate nose template with the wide point exact center. The Magnet tail is noticeably wider for added lift and low speed planing efficiency.
Rocker
Stretch's magic continuous rocker. Similar in concept to the S-10 rocker, it features a milder entry for easier paddling along with slightly more tail rocker than the WHAT? for maneuverability and control under your back foot.
Rails
Medium-full 50/50 rails distribute thickness across a slightly flatter deck without taking away sensitivity and responsiveness when put on rail. A proportionate thickness flow and foil keeps all around performance in the board without feeling bulky.
Bottom
Slight vee in the nose to a 5/16" deep single concave between your feet. Slight vee out the tail.
