Towards the end of 2021 while living in their hometown of New Orleans, LA, Gregory and Rachel Gremillion traded in their restaurant business for the good life. After living as part time residents of Nosara for over 6 years, they finally became full time community members and opened Alt Fin & Co. “I’ve always had an appreciation for the ocean and all things that travel on water. With fin selection, it’s usually not top of mind with most surfers. But - one’s choice of surf fin is probably the single most efficient way to get the best out of any board you own. Or put another way, you haven’t unlocked peak magic on your go-to ride until you’ve found its true fin counterpart. Once you start messing around with different fin setups, you can start to get a glimpse into the true nature of your board. ” A flagship shop in Nosara was opened and our goal was to provide the most comprehensive, eclectic, and progressive selection of new and vintage fins in all of Central America. That shop is now closed, but we live 100% online now. In 2023, life long friend and surfer Adam Champagne joined Alt Fin & Co. as a partner and supporter.
