Futures Fins AM2 Alpha Thruster Fin Set
The AM2 Alpha is a large size thruster fin set built in the Rake template category, made using Futures' Alpha construction. If you are hunting for a thruster set sized for a bigger rider that still delivers drawn out drive through a turn, this large Rake template is built for exactly that.
Construction and Design
- Rake template, described as drawn out with drive, in a large size for riders 165 pounds and up
- Alpha construction combines Bureo's NetPlus recycled fishing nets with Futures' compound 6 carbon and air infused technology
- Balanced ride number of 6.7 across a thruster configuration of three fins
- Suited to open face and point break style waves
Who This Set Is For
This large thruster set is built for a bigger or more powerful surfer riding South Florida's open face and point break conditions who needs a fin with enough surface area and drive to hold under their weight without feeling flexy or unstable. The Rake template's drawn out shape favors a rider who likes to set a line down the face rather than snap tight and quick.
Fit, Setup, and Care
The three fin thruster set installs into a Futures fin box. Rinse the fins and box in fresh water after every surf session, and check that all three fin screws are seated securely before paddling out, since a loose fin in a thruster setup changes the balance of the whole board. Inspect the Alpha construction periodically for surface wear given its recycled material composition.
Brand Background
Futures Fins is made in Huntington Beach, and the Alpha product line was built by the Longo brothers' company to combine Bureo's ocean plastic recycling initiative with Futures' own compound 6 carbon and air infused fin technology.
