• X-Small template with less rake than the GX Side fin.

• Small traditional longboard side bite designed to add speed, stability and control to any 2 + 1 set up. 

Ideal Conditions

• A wide range of conditions from beach breaks to point breaks.

Board Types

• All board types.
• Will fit the FCS II Fin System when used with grub screws and the FCS Infill Kit.

FRMX-PG01-XL-QS-R

Overview

• The Seaside Quad is Rob Machado’s first signature FCS II fin template.
• Designed specifically for his Firewire Seaside model.
• This semi-keel + stabiliser offers the flow of a traditional twin fish with the control of a performance quad setup.
• Quad set containing 4 fins.

Ideal Conditions

• A wide range of conditions from beach breaks to point breaks, Ideally suited to smaller, weaker waves.

Board Types

• Designed to fit the FCS II Fin System.
• Excels in higher volume hybrid surfboard models.

Performance Glass (PG)

Performance Glass fins are machine cut from layers of solid fiberglass. These fins are stiff and are widely used by pro level surfers because the integrity of the flex is maintained under immense force, and in the most extreme of conditions and situations.

FREA-PC04-TS-R

Overview

• Designed for speed and tight turns, with added tail release.
• Upright template allows for tighter, more acute directional changes.
• Smaller centre fin for increased pivot and tail release.
• Ideal for surfers who like to perform fast, progressive turns.

Ideal Conditions

• Suitable for hollow waves, particularly good for beach breaks.

Board Types

• Designed to fit the FCS II Fin System.
• Recommended for performance shortboards with moderate-to-low rocker.

Fin Family

• Reactor: Find Speed. Speed, tight turns & snaps.

Performance Core

Performance Core (PC) fins are made using a multi-layered resin transfer molding process. The flex pattern in PC fins extends progressively from the base through to the tip, helping the surfer to maintain drive and hold through a turn. This versatile fin material is light, and can be used in a variety of different conditions.

FREA-CC03-TS-R

Overview

LIGHTER CONSTRUCTION. SMOOTHER FEEL.

The new PC Carbon Essential Series utilises a superior blend of carbon tissue and our ultralight AirCore construction to deliver a more user-friendly flex to achieve faster start up acceleration, and a smoother feel through turns.

Performance Core Carbon

Often referred to as PC Carbon or PCC, these fins are highly responsive and feature strategically placed carbon that’s designed to complement the fin template. PCC fins suit fast surfing and are favored by power surfers who like to perform explosive turns on critical parts of the wave.

The new PCC Essential Series fins have been constructed using AirCore technology, which is a pressed polyurethane foam core that mimics the geometric foil of the fin. With AirCore we can make a much lighter fin with total manipulation of the flex.

The internal carbon framework is designed specifically to suit each template, and by switching to epoxy resin and adding a carbon twill to the base we’ve delivered a more user-friendly flex pattern. Stiffness in the lower half of the fin enhances drive and acceleration from take-off, and a softer flex through the top half of the fin results in a smoother and more predictable feel when turning.

FPTX-PG01-XL-SS-R

Overview

• Highest area twin set in the FCS range; as a result, can be pushed harder through turns.
• Moderate sweep (rake), full tip and longer base delivers incredible drive and speed.
• Lower depth value maintains manoeuvrability and looseness off the top and through turns.
• Designed in collaboration with Harley Ingleby for use on his asymmetric twin model.

Board Types

• Designed to fit the FCS II Fin System.
• Recommended for all board types including fish, funboard and twin fin boards.

Material

Our new PC Carbon construction with ‘Linear Flex’ produces a 3D twist & roll action resulting in a fast, super responsive fin that feels much smoother through turns. PCC fins suit fast surfing and are favoured by more advanced surfers who like to perform explosive turns on critical parts of the wave.

• This fin provides maximum drive.

Ideal Conditions

• Open face, down-the-line waves, particularly good in point and reef breaks.

Board Types

• Designed to fit the FCS II Fin System.
• Recommended for performance shortboards with moderate-to-extreme rocker.
