Futures R6 Legacy Series Thruster Set
The Futures R6 Honeycomb Thruster Set is part of the R6 Legacy Series, a fin built in Futures' Rake template category with increased rake designed to hold through turns.
Honeycomb Construction and Rake Design
The increased rake on this fin's outline provides extra hold as you carve through a turn, while the Honeycomb construction keeps the overall feel balanced for all-around performance rather than one narrow style of surfing. Futures gives this set a Balanced ride rating in line with that all-around design goal.
Who This Fin Set Is For
This set suits surfers who want a dependable, all-around fin for everyday sessions, with the added hold that increased rake provides when a wave lets you draw out a longer turn. Futures suggests it for open face and point break waves, and classifies this Medium fin for riders in the 145 to 175 pound range.
Setting Up and Caring for Your Futures Fins
Futures fins install into a Futures fin box system and lock in with the included screws. Hand tighten until snug, back the screws out before storing your board for an extended period so the box threads do not seize, and rinse the fins with fresh water after each session to keep salt and sand out of the box.
Part of the R6 Legacy Series
The R6 belongs to Futures' Legacy Series, built around the increased rake and Honeycomb construction that give this fin its balanced, all-around hold and drive.
