Quad (4 fins)

The Futures Fins Quad Thermotech fin set (available with QD2 rear fin configurations in sizes 4.0 or 4.15) is the ideal choice for surfers looking for the natural speed and manoeuvrability of a four-fin setup. Designed using exclusive Thermotech technology, this highly durable range eliminates the ‘plastic’ feel of low-end composite fins to deliver a consistent and fluid flex. The two front fins provide excellent grip on bottom turns, whilst the two rear fins, featuring a symmetrical (50/50) foil, stabilise your line whilst facilitating rapid rail-to-rail transitions. An ultra-versatile, high-performance and accessible set to boost the drive of your shortboard or fish in all wave conditions, available from your specialist surf shop, Waïmea Surf Shop, in Anglet.

The FCS II Machado PG Side Byte fin set (available in Black or Camo finishes) comprises two versatile side fins specifically designed by the renowned freesurfer Rob Machado. Borrowing the rear template from his famous Seaside quad set, this neutral and perfectly balanced template is designed to be paired with a centre fin (such as the Machado Sunday Single) to add an essential dose of speed, stability and control to any 2+1 configuration. These small stabilisers also work perfectly as rear quad fins on a shortboard or a high-volume hybrid board. Their high-end Performance Glass construction, machined from layers of solid fibreglass, offers the rigidity and stiffness sought after by surfers to maintain clean lines under heavy pressure. An ideal choice for smoother turns and optimised manoeuvrability on your longboard, mid-length or egg board in everyday waves, available from your specialist surf shop, Waïmea Surf Shop in Anglet.

The FCS II Performer PC Quad Rear fin set comprises two rear fins specifically designed to transform your classic thruster setup into a high-performance quad rig. Part of the renowned Performer range, this fin template features a neutral, perfectly balanced design that suits all types of boards and waves on the market. Its high-end Performance Core construction combines laminated fibreglass with an ultra-lightweight internal honeycomb core, offering progressive flex and excellent shape memory to deliver energy smoothly. Featuring a symmetrical 50/50 foil, these rear fins ensure clean water flow, promoting rapid rail-to-rail transitions, a smooth glide and predictable handling at high speed. They’re the ideal choice for adding drive, natural speed and control to your shortboard or hybrid model without restricting pivot, available from your specialist surf shop, Waïmea Surf Shop, in Anglet.

• Speed and acceleration: Maintain maximum drive coming out of every turn.
• Maximum manoeuvrability: An ideal vertical template for attacking the lip and stringing together radical snaps.
• Performance Core construction: The perfect balance between lightness, stiffness and feel underfoot.

The Futures Fins Stretch Quad fin set is the gold standard for high-performance quad set-ups, developed by the renowned Santa Cruz shaper William Riedel (Stretch Surfboards). Classified in the ‘Pivot’ category for its exceptional manoeuvrability and responsiveness, this set stands out for its very vertical profile and the duck-bill tip (beak-tip) characteristic of Stretch’s designs, allowing you to string together ultra-tight turns right in the pocket of the wave. Its premium Honeycomb construction utilises a resin-injection-moulded honeycomb core, resulting in a fin that is 25 per cent lighter than a traditional fin whilst maintaining excellent progressive flex (Ride Number of 7.4). The technical configuration combines an inner concave foil (V2 Foil) on the side fins to maximise lift and speed, with a 50/50 symmetrical foil on the rear fins to stabilise the line without creating drag. Ideal for optimising the acceleration and agility of your performance shortboard or hybrid board in beach breaks, this set for medium-sized riders is available from your specialist surf shop, Waïmea Surf Shop, in Anglet.
