Futures Fins Machado Blackstix 3.0 Tri Fin Set

Challange yourself to more than just fun and games on the wave with the Futures Machado Blackstix 3.0 Fins. This Medium size speed generating fin performs best tucked in the pocket or snapping at the lip in the likes of designer and California style-master Rob Machado. This reissued set is now made in the Futures Fins proprietary Blackstix construction, but still with an additional layer of bamboo that's become synonymous with the Machado thruster. The combination of carbon and bamboo materials and the V2 foil create a very lively feel, ideal for high-performance execution in quality waves. Rob knows how to surf like few others and the Futures Machado Blackstix 3.0 Fins help the rest of us capture a taste of that sweetness.

Blackstix 3.0/Bamboo Construction

Blackstix 3.0 have a flexible Carbon Fiber tip that loads up and releases energy for generating speed when you need it. Two layers of unidirectional carbon are strategically laid at the base of the fins, at an angle that controls how the tip of the fin bends and rotates, paired with asymmetrical carbon panels on the inside and outside of the fin, to bring a snappy feel to your board, enabling the unique liveliness that only Blackstix can provide. With the additional Bamboo layer the load is stabilized slightly, for a more controlled response. The V2 foil creates an effortless feeling rail-to-rail linkage, so you can keep speed while setting up big maneuvers down the line, even when the waves you're surfing lack power. To add one more layer of performance to the Blackstix, we use epoxy resin. Epoxy resin is lighter, tougher & more resilient than polyester resin. These are the lightest fins in the Futures line.
