Vector Rasta Keel
This is pretty cool:



http://www.futuresfins.com/specialty-fin-details.php?id=173

Aussie free-surfing icon David “Rasta” Rastovich, introduces his signature keel fin, the “Vector Rasta Keel”. For the past year, Rasta and Future Fins have been working closely together to design the most advanced keel for a twin board. Rasta doesn’t fit into your conventional free-surfing stereotype, while yes he is traveling allover the world capturing video and photos of him surfing perfect waves, he is constantly experimenting with his equipment while pushing the envelope on every wave, riding every board possible and surfing all sorts of fin setups, he is truly a fluid surfer in all aspects of surfing.

As a surfer, Dave Rastovich knows the importance of the ocean and all of its inhabitants. Knowing this, Rasta is donating 100% of his signature Vector Rasta Keel royalties to the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and Future Fins is matching it. Founded in 1977 by Paul Watson, co-founder of Green Peace, Sea Shepherd is a non-profit organization that enforces laws and restrictions against whaling in Antarctic waters, against longlining and shark finning in the Galapagos Islands, and against the Canadian seal slaughter. Other Sea Shepherd supporters include celebrities; the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Richard Dean Anderson, Pierce Brosnan, Martin Sheen, Sean Penn, and William Shatner.

Thanks to DUer FLSurfer for showing me this!

1. If that's not their logo, it should be.
:thumbsup:

I'd love to get that design on a bumper sticker.

4. I have made a Sea Shepherd purchase recently myself.
A friend of mine, doing huge favors for me every month asked for a hat. (He lives in Rio) I am sure he wanted a unique U.S. style that he could strut around in.

So I bought the classic blue Sea Shep for him.

He will be one of the few in Rio to sport the Sea Shepherd. Thanks for all the posts for this great cause.
