The next chapter in Kelly Slater's signature fin series has arrived with the
introduction of the FCS K2.1 PC Quad. This dynamic quad set combines Kelly's
P2.1 PC Tri fin set with quad rear fins based on the same geometry as the
proven FCS G-1000 template.
The FCS K2.1 PC Tri Quad set sits in the medium size category. The side fins
feature a compact template with a flat sided foil. The upright nature of this
fin template offers incredible pivoting capabilities and allows for acute
directional changes. The rear fin features an 80/20 foil, a moderate amount of
sweep angle, and substantial curve through the leading and trailing edges of
the fin.
The FCS K2.1 PC Tri Quad has become one of Kelly's preferred set ups, and has
proven to be a key ingredient in his quest to push the boundaries of modern
day surfing. The K2.1 template in the side delivers instant acceleration and
the ability to turn in a tight arc. The rear fin which is smaller in size and
has more sweep angle, provides the perfect combination of hold versus release.
These two fin templates work in synergy to produce a dynamic quad set that is
incredibly fast and responsive, yet can still be surfed with plenty of power.
Performance Core (PC) adds a new dimension to this high performance quad set
and is designed to deliver the feeling of a traditional fiberglass fin with
the added performance of reduced weight. Performance Core construction
consists of a Resin Transfer Moulding (RTM) process. Polyester resin is
injected into a mold containing a sandwich of lightweight lantor core matt
(honeycomb foam-like compound) and sheets of fiberglass. This process
guarantees precision and accuracy and produces a lightweight fin with
calculated flex. Each fin is then individually sanded and treated to produce a
smooth matte finish.
