FCS K3 Fins
Kelly says, "The FCS K3 Fins fins are perfect for down the line walls and long turns. I actually started using the FCS K3 fins 3 years ago when I needed a better fin for the long walled waves at Rincon. Now I've been on the FCS K3 Fins for over three years. They have been my magic set. I originally designed the K2.1 with beach breaks and barrels in mind, and I still use them in these sorts of conditions. With the FCS K3 and K2.1 Fins you should be set for pretty much any sort of waves you find." - Kelly Slater
Kelly has really put the FCS K3 Fins to the test over the past 3 years he s had a lot of CT wins on them, J-bay twice, Bells this year Trestles last year just to name a few . FCS is really excited to offer the K3 Fins on his behalf. They complete the fin quiver that he draws from on tour. Said FCS's Tyler Callaway." The FCS K3 Fins are available in Performance Glass for a stiff, traditional feel which are the exact same fin that Kelly Slater rode to his 8th world title. The FCS K3 Fins are also available in Glass Flex a material that mimics the flex properties of glass and is precision molded." AND NOW Performance Core!!!! A material that mimics glassed in fins, with the added benefit of a reduced weight!
**If you want the FCS K3 Fins in Performance Core you had better get your order on! These WILL be the hottest fins of the season and we are sure to sell out quickly! Currently IN STOCK!
The FCS K3 Fins have a template that is a bit deeper and features slightly less base area than the K2.1 with a smaller more raked tip. This will allow the K3 Fins to provides drive and the ability to draw out longer arcing turns. With a rigid base combined with a tapered flexible tip results in a progressive flex pattern, for quick rail transitions and forgiving performance in sticky situation. All of this is combined with the responsive materials of Glass Flex or Performance Glass produces the K3 Fins; Fins that turn incredibly tight through snaps due to the added flex in the tip. The FCS Flex fixture was used to measure the flex pattern of Kelly's magic set. So that the same flex pattern could engineered into the FCS K3 Glass Flex version.
The refined foil on the FCS K3 Fins allow efficient water flow, minimizing drag and cavitation. The FCS K3 Fins are an aesthetically striking fin, whether in (NEW) Performance Core, Performance Glass or Glass Flex the FCS K3 Fins feature 8 concentric circles to represent Kelly's 8 world titles.
