The fin set for every Firewire shape.
The all-new Velox Fin Set is a rake template, and is the performance baseline for all Firewire Surfboards shapes. It was designed for maximum fun in all models shaped by Rob Machado, Dan Mann, and Daniel 'Tomo' Thomson.
Built for drive down the line and controlled turns, the Velox Fin Set excels in open faces and long lines, in waves knee-high to well-overhead. This template has a beveled edge in the leading foil of the fins, supporting immediate disruption of water flow and an elevated sense of stability in all maneuvers. Generously raked in its outline, the Velox Fin Set makes it forgiving and easy to surf in a wide variety of shapes, whether the Sweet Potato, Dominator 2.0, Mashup, and more.
With a core engineered from high density polymer overlayed with carbon veils, the Velox Fin Set has an unmatched mix of flex and strength enabling controlled spring and rebound in turns, and additional control above other fin building methods. An extremely light set of fins, the Velox template adds minimal weight to all shapes - a performance benefit championed by Kevin Schulz and other Firewire Surfboards' team riders.
Single Tab variants are compatible with Futures' fin system.
Firewire Velox 5 Fin Set
While this is an Upright (pivot) template, it still has Rob's hybrid DNA with a lengthened base. Rob took special care with this fin's construction, wanting to create a technically progressive flex throughout the template. Because of the various carbon layups in combination with the bamboo core, the leading edge is stiffer while the trailing edge has more flex. This construction's progressive flex provides spring and liveliness out of every turn, while maintaining the immediate response and drive required for high-performance surfing.
