One outline. Three profiles. Find your feel.
The Carbon Tail 3 Pack is Clifford Coetzer's approach to letting you dial in exactly the right stabilizer feel for your riding style. Same cutting-edge outline across all three tails, but with three completely different foil profiles — one for back-footed riders, one for neutral, and one for front-footed. Shim each one to the conditions and discover which profile unlocks your best riding.
Once you find your favorite, the other two become your personal R&D lab. Sand them down in the chop shop and experiment with different sizes and profiles. It's the cheapest way to learn more about how your foil works — and you might accidentally build your perfect tail in the process.
Bolts sold separately.
Shank — Back-footed. Symmetrical 50/50 foil profile. Built for riders who ride with weight over the back foot and want the tail to carry more of the load. Stable and predictable under rear-foot pressure.
Shiv — Neutral. Flat/asymmetrical foil profile. The most popular tail of the three — balanced pressure, versatile across disciplines, and the tail that eventually evolved into the Progression tail series.
Shunt — Front-footed. Reflex/inside foil profile. Built for riders who drive from the front foot and want a tail that stays out of the way. Looser feel, quicker release through turns.
Three tails. One size. Each pack includes the Shunt, Shiv, and Shank — same dimensions, different feel.

Three Profiles. Find Your Feel.
Everyone rides differently. The Shank, Shiv, and Shunt use the same outline but completely different foil profiles — one matched to each riding stance. Try all three, shim each to conditions, and find the profile that clicks with how you actually ride. No guessing. Just data from your own feet.
Same outline. Completely different rides.
One Variable at a Time
Because all three tails share the same outline, the only thing that changes is the foil profile. That means every difference you feel on the water is real — not a placebo from a different shape. It's the cleanest way to understand what your tail is actually doing and what matters most to your riding.
Pick your favorite. Experiment with the rest.
Your Personal R&D Lab
Find the tail that fits your style, then take the other two to the chop shop. Sand them down, reshape them, experiment with different sizes and profiles. It's the cheapest way to learn how tail design affects your ride — and you might build something even better in the process.
