FCS Hayden Shapes Performance AirCore Thruster

The FCS II Hayden Shapes Performance Core AirCore Thruster Fins are high-performance surf fins designed to unlock speed, drive, and responsiveness for your FCS II-equipped shortboard. Developed in collaboration with Hayden Cox of Haydenshapes, this thruster fin set offers a balanced template that excels in bottom-end drive and generating forward momentum through open-faced waves.

Constructed with Performance Core (PC) material, enhanced by AirCore technology, these fins combine lightweight flex with dynamic response in the water. The AirCore technology utilizes a pressed polyurethane core that mimics the fin's foil, significantly reducing weight while maintaining precise control over flex and performance.

The thruster configuration features raked side fins with a longer base that promote exceptional speed, rail engagement, and drive, combined with a center fin that enhances release through turns. This design makes the fins particularly well-suited for boards with low rocker and fuller volumes, such as the Haydenshapes Hypto Krypto and similar models, where acceleration from the bottom and maintaining speed in critical sections is essential.
