Mike Hynson

After returning from his Endless Summer adventures, he moved to Gordon and Smith Surfboards, and soon released the tri-stringer Hynson Model, a signature board later known as the "red fin" for it's distinctive blood-red skeg. Many of the world's best surfers ride Hynson boards, including Billy Hamilton, Barry Kanaiaupuni, Butch Van Artsdale and Herbie Fletcher. Hynson also designed and built the HY-1 and HY-2 models for Gordon and Smith, helped develop the control-enhancing "tucked-under edge" surfboard rail in the late '60's, and created the DolFin in 1973, a popular fin design patterned after a dolphin's dorsal fin.
