The FCS2 x Channel Islands Solution PC Thruster Set, fast, lively and responsive.
Designed in collaboration with Channel Islands Surfboards and based on the proven CI upright template by Britt Merrick. Built to complement the CI Solution model and beyond, this fin set delivers speed, responsiveness, and tight turning performance across a range of wave types.
The upright template promotes quick direction changes and vertical surfing, making it ideal for punchy, hollow waves and critical sections. At the same time, the fuller profile from base to tip provides the drive and control needed to push hard through turns, while still maintaining a loose, free-feeling release off the top. Designed to suit boards with a more relaxed rocker, this fin excels in generating immediate start-up speed and acceleration from take-off, and off the the top, it releases cleanly for a loose, responsive feel.
A balanced fin that blends speed, control, and freedom - perfect for surfers looking to maximise performance in everyday and punchy conditions alike.
