Futures Fins Christenson Fiberglass Keel Fin Set Black-White

Futures Fins Christenson Fiberglass Keel Fin Set

This is the Christenson Fiberglass Keel Fin Set from Futures Fins, a fin set built around the classic keel template that shapers like Christenson favor for glide and trim rather than a tight, snappy pivot.

• Fiberglass construction
• Keel fin template

Who This Set Is For

Keel fin sets like this one suit a South Florida surfer riding a keel style board, typically a fish or a similarly outlined shape, who wants a board that holds speed and trim through a turn rather than pivots on a dime. Riders who prioritize glide on softer, mellower days tend to gravitate toward this style of template over a high performance thruster setup.

Fit, Setup, and Care

This set installs into a Futures fin box. Rinse the fins and the box in fresh water after every session to keep salt and sand from building up around the screw, and confirm the fins are seated snug before each surf so they don't work loose under load. Fiberglass fins should be checked periodically for chips or hairline cracks, especially near the base where stress concentrates.

Brand Background

Futures Fins was founded by the Longo brothers, who brought an aerospace and hydrogen fuel cell fabrication background into fin design starting in 1996, and the brand has worked with well known shapers, including this Christenson collaboration, ever since.
