Al Merrick's Signature Thruster Template
The FCS 2 AM PC Tri-Fin Set is one of the most popular thruster sets Island Water Sports sells in store, and it is easy to see why surfers keep searching for this exact FCS 2 AM PC template by name. This tri, three fin set was designed by Channel Islands Surfboards founder and shaper Al Merrick, refined over his decades of shaping for the world's best surfers.
How the Shape Performs
Raked side fins produce exceptional drive and hold on rail, while a smaller center fin offers quick release through turns. The wide base and raked back shape deliver heaps of drive down the line, and the narrower tip and smaller back fin give plenty of release off the top. Built in Performance Core construction, the set uses FCS's honeycomb build to create a positive feeling, medium flex pattern suited to a large range of conditions. FCS designed this template for hollow, steep waves and punchy beach breaks, and recommends it for performance boards with deep concaves and moderate to extreme rocker.
Who This Fin Set Is For
This set is built for surfers who want a radical, progressive feel out of their thruster setup, riding performance boards down the line at their local beach break. It fits the FCS II system, so it works on any board already set up with FCS II boxes, whether that board rides in a car rack or off the boat.
Fitting and Caring for the Fins
Because this is an FCS II set, installation is tool free, line up the fin's tab with the box plug and press until it clicks into place. Rinse the fins and boxes in fresh water after saltwater sessions to keep salt and sand from building up in the plugs, and store the set somewhere dry and out of direct sun to protect the Performance Core material.
Backed by Decades of Shaping Experience
Al Merrick's fin template reflects decades of shaping for the world's best surfers, and it carries FCS's broader design philosophy of building fins in collaboration with leading surf athletes and shapers, which is why FCS fins remain a preferred choice among top surfers and shapers.
