DEFLOW CREAM 9.75" | SINGLE FIN FOR LONGBOARD BLACK VIOLET

Deflow's most iconic single fin in its historic size and the darkest, deepest two-tone finish in the range

Black and violet don't usually go together on longboard fins. Deflow's Cream 9.75" Black Violet brings them together in a laminated finish that combines the depth of black with violet nuances, giving the fin a unique character: dark and serious from afar, with that flash of color between blue and purple that reveals itself up close. For the longboarder who prefers their fin to have character without being flashy, and for whom the 9.75" size is their permanent reference in the fin box.

WHY THIS FIN MAKES A DIFFERENCE

The Black Violet brings the most sophisticated and discreet colorway to the largest standard size in the Cream family, with all its technical advantages for advanced longboarding:

• 202.69 mm base: the foundation for advanced noseriding — The wide base of the 9.75" is what most advanced longboarders seek when noseriding is the priority. Consistent hold, sustainable five-toes on long sections, fluid nose entry and exit without the tail slipping off the line.
• 45.78 in² area: real traction at speed — The lateral force generated by a fin of this area at cruising speed is what allows for secure and controlled trimming. The 9.75" doesn't just noseride; it also generates the down-the-line speed that makes trimming a pleasure in itself.
• Stiff in the body, flex at the top — The Cream design principle that makes it possible for a longboard fin of this area to also be a fin capable of executing real turns. Body stiffness provides the hold; tip flex provides the release.
• Black Violet: depth and character without the noise — Light-absorbing black combined with light-reflecting violet nuances. A two-color palette that, within the fiberglass laminate, creates a finish with presence without needing to scream. The colorway for the longboarder who has criteria in every detail of their setup.

ADVICE FROM OUR EXPERTS

The Black Violet is the most elegant and least common colorway of the Cream 9.75". The combination of black and violet in the fiberglass laminate behaves in a very interesting way visually: on sunny days, the violet flashes, giving the fin a presence that pure black lacks; on cloudy days, it is simply a very dark, character-filled fin. It works on any board without exception—the black disappears on dark boards, and the violet peeks through on light boards—and from a technical point of view, the 9.75" Cream is simply the best character-driven noseriding size in the entire Deflow catalog.

USAGE AND CARE

• Installation — Standard single fin box system. Ensure your board's box accepts 9.75" fins.
• Positioning — For longboards 9'3" and up. Adjust position in the box according to your style and board.
• Two-tone laminate care — Inspect regularly, especially at the transition between black and violet where the laminate may be under more stress. Repair any dings with compatible resin.
