Deluxe is the leader in Bodyboard and swim fins and we are announcing our newest partnership with four internationally recognized athletes.

A new rider will be announced each week as we head into the month of June. The first of which is to be announced May 27th.

We are at the forefront of fin design and our new mold is the most advance on the market. With our new team in place we intended to be the most dominant brand in swim fins and we will be constantly looking for ways to improve on our already advance fin mold.

Jose Otavio Performance on Round 1

As ondas não se apresentam nas melhores condições, pelo que pude ouvir o vento sul estava a mexer na formação das ondas O José Otávio começou bem com um bom Air Invert, usou a estratégia de esperar pelas melhores e mandou umas manobras na parte crítica da onda (360 aéreo). Ficou em 2º o que lhe permite ainda ter hipóteses para passar à segunda fase. Podes adquirir uma prancha igual à de Otávio, a mesma que foi utilizada em Arica! http://respectbodyboards.com/store ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The waves were not in the perfect conditions, i heard it was the south wind "messin" with the formation. Jose Otavio started with a good air invert, waited for the best waves and manouvered well with 360 air. He placed in second place, wich still alows him to have good chances to go to fase 2. You can purchase an exact replica of Otavio´s board, like the one he used in Arica! http://respectbodyboards.com/store Os resultados/Results Red Ryan HARDY 12.25 4 White Uri VALADAO 13.10 3 Yellow Dave HUBBARD 16.25 1 Blue Jose OTAVIO 13.25 2

The evolution is a mystery full of change that no one sees. Clock makes a fool of history yesterday's too long ago. Don't agree with what I know. Tomorrow becomes the place to be. I see the line in the sand. Time to find out who I am. Would you like to see where I stand? Evolution

Deluxe VOL 2.0 coming soon

New shape. New colors. New riders

VOL 2.0 coming soon

Throughout the bodyboard history, there have been many tries in the pursuing of crafting the "perfect" fins. Some were good, some were bad. Anyway, they have always not worked fine. At Deluxe Fins we've put together all the "good ideas", very well accepted by the bodyboard industry up to date, and the result is extraordinary. A high performance fin with a very streamline design and a new unique drainage system that supplies the needs of the most demanding riders, from recreational riders to the elite proffesional bodyboarders.

However, we have not only stopped in the engineering. We've gone further and we have also given a lot of thought in the style. We have developed alongside our renowned riders a series of color combinations in order to not only wear a fin, but to wear it with style.

The new Deluxe VOL 2.0 features a new reinvented streamline design with a touch of glamour, thanks to their fashioned and timeless colorways. More info coming soon.

RENAN FACINNI's ADDICTION

Renan Facinni is the most extravagant rider of the Respect Team. He lives in São Paulo, Brazil and loves slabs and wedges more than his own tatoos. Renan's been telling us that 2011 has been good to him and he's been getting some shade and air time at his home breaks. He's also the man behind Youth Productions and while finishing the editing of his new movie Addiction, the man took time to share some pictures of his latest trip to the São Paulo's North Shore. While the premiere of Addiction is still on its way, feast your eyes on some mindblowing 1000fps footage!
