Firewire 'FW' shaper fin. A highly maneuverable fin providing exceptional stability through turns
PERFORMANCE
OVERVIEW
Designed by Nev Hyman, and now constructed with a carbon tissue insert to offer more flex and a smoother feel compared to the original ultra-stiff bamboo version. The FW side fins sit deep in the water, have minimal sweep and great pivoting capabilities. This set has loads of drive and holds nicely through turns, yet the smaller centre fin provides additional tail release.
IDEAL CONDITIONS
A wide range of conditions, particularly good in critical overhead waves.
BOARD TYPES
Hi-volume shortboards and hybrid models with wider tails and lower rocker.
*Please Note: this fin is designed to be used exclusively with the FCS II Fin System, and will not fit in the traditional FCS Dual Plug System.
