FCS II JW-1 Julian Wilson Fins
The FCS II JW-1 Is HERE! After much anticipation FCS has released the Julian Wilson Fins for the Screwless FCS II system! As fate would have it, the development of the original FCS JW-1 Fin coincided with the filming of Julian’s signature movie “Scratching the Surface�. The hectic travel itinerary meant Jules was able to test and refine his fin in a diverse range of waves. Once the template was locked down, Jules tried different foil options and constructions in order to achieve that ‘perfect flex’. In the end a traditional flat foil in Performance Glass construction prevailed. The final piece of the puzzle was to take the unmistakable JW-1 template, change the color to a Lime and release it in the NEW FCS II System!
“I’m really excited about the upcoming release of my signature FCS II JW-1 fin. I’ve spent most of this year refining the fin to get it perfect. It’s a medium size performance fin with a slightly smaller center fin. It’s really fast and responsive, and it gives me the performance I need for my style of surfing.� - Julian Wilson
Jules rides this fin in everything from 1 foot to 4-6 foot. We asked him why surfers should ride his fin, his reply was; “This fin won’t hold you back, it’ll let you do everything you desire… if you can do it?�
The FCS II JW-1 is a medium size fin geared towards fast, aggressive surfing. The side fin template lends elements of Kelly Slater’s old K2.1 template and the FCS G-5, delivering fast pivotal surfing in critical sections. A slightly smaller center fin template also triggers quick tail release. Julian Wilson's signature thruster set comes with smaller center fin and is ideal for performance shortboard and fish models.
