The FCS II Connect PG 8" Longboard Fin in black is a neutral, well-balanced fin based on the FCS Dolphin longboard template. It is a versatile performance fin for modern longboarding in all conditions.
All-Round Performance for Modern Longboards
The Connect blends drive, speed and response, so you can link turns and move up and down the board smoothly. At 8" it works well as a single fin or as the center fin in a 2+1 setup.
Key Features
- Neutral, balanced template: Based on the FCS Dolphin longboard template.
- 2+1 compatible: Use it alone or with side fins.
- Performance Glass (PG): Machine cut from layers of solid fiberglass for a stiff fin that holds its flex pattern under heavy load.
- FCS II tool-less longboard system: No plate or screw needed. The fin clicks in and out in seconds without a fin key, and you can adjust its position in the box mid-session.
