Firewire Machado Seaside Quad Fin Set - Limited Edition Color
The Firewire Machado Seaside Quad Fin Set is Rob Machado’s signature quad template, designed to bring a fast, drivey, keel-inspired feel to the Seaside and other quad-fin surfboards. Firewire describes it as their most popular quad fin set, with a wide-base feel that delivers strong projection while still keeping the board lively and responsive through turns. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
Unlike many quad sets that start from a thruster-style template, the Seaside Quads were developed from Rob Machado’s experience riding keel fins. That gives them a distinctive combination of speed, hold, and flowing release that works especially well on fish-inspired boards where you want to carry momentum through softer sections without losing control. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
This version features a Futures-compatible single-tab base and a limited edition colorway, giving you the same proven Seaside Quad performance in a more distinctive finish. Firewire notes that the Single Tab version is compatible with Futures fin boxes. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
