The MR Twin+ 1 set combines the best performance features of a twin fin and a thruster. Pure twin fins are fast, loose, highly maneuverable, and responsive, and the addition of a small stabilizer fin adds an extra degree of drive and control. The large side fins from this set are big enough to be ridden in a pure twin fin configuration and will work in virtually any size or shape board in an optimum surf size range of 1 to 6 feet.
"Being pure foiled fiberglass, the construction of my Futures Fin set mirrors the traditional flex characteristics of a hand-foiled fin cut from a multi layered fiberglass fin panel. The 2+ 1 configuration gives the board a twin fin performance feel with additional speed and maneuverability. The small real rear stabilizer fin adds a degree of positive control and predictability. The outline temp for the MR Twin Fin set plus rear stabilizer is over 20 years old. I developed it around 2000 in response to a request from Soeda Surfboards Japan to make some twin fins for the team riders. My pure twin templates have a wide base and are very upright with not a lot of rake. So, I decided to design a new twin fin and small stabilizer template. Feedback from the Soeda team riders was positive, they loved the boards. The moment I got the feedback I got excited and shaped myself a modern twin fin with the 2+ 1 set-up. 24 years later I'm still surfing with these fins and totally frothing on them!!!"

WHAT IS A VECTOR FOIL
It is a proprietary Futures foil with a concave surface on the inside of the front fins, increasing surface area, water attachment, and lift.WHAT IS A 3/2
3/2 complements the Vector with an extra 3 degrees of cant and 2 degrees of toe, introducing a twist to the foil for improved planing angles in sharp turns, creating lift and hold deeper into the maneuver.PERFORMANCE BENEFITS OF THE VECTOR 3/2
The Vector 3/2 is a Speed Generating fin, maximizing water attachment over multiple planing surfaces, resulting in lift and reduced drag. The concave surface and twist in the upper half provide a unique grip and projection sensation, delivering fluid speed generation in smaller waves and powerful connection and increased speed in larger surf, resulting in faster and improved turns.
Helps connect turns while generating and maintaining speed with a more predictable engaged feel.BENEFITS OF THE SCIMITAR TIP
Originally developed in 2006, The Scimitar Tip is flattened edge at the fin's trailing end, tightens the turn arc by reducing the template's length. This complements the 3/2 foil's lift and speed design, enhancing the feeling of release from turns while maximizing the foil properties throughout the fin's template.- Template Category - Neutral (all-around | versatile)
