The Perfect Balance of Twin-Fin Freedom & Thruster Control
The Machado 2+1 Fin Set is designed to deliver the best of both worlds—the speed and glide of Rob Machado’s signature Twin Keel with the controlled turns of a thruster. This unique fin setup was created specifically for Rob’s most versatile hybrid board, the Machadocado, and is ideal for surfers looking for enhanced maneuverability without sacrificing speed.
Why Choose the Machado 2+1 Fin Set?
- High-Performance Template – More upright than a keel, allowing for tighter turns and extreme control.
- Twin-Fin Glide with Added Control – Enjoy the effortless speed & smooth transitions of a twin fin, enhanced by a small rear trailer for extra stability.
- Versatile for All Wave Conditions – Generates speed easily in weak waves while maintaining precision in powerful surf from knee-high to overhead.
- Seamless Rail-to-Rail Transitions – Optimized for what Rob calls "transitional moments," ensuring smoother, more controlled turns.
- Perfect Balance of Drive & Flow – The small rear trailer provides just enough surface area for extra control in turns without adding unnecessary drag.
Designed for Performance Surfing
The Machado 2+1 Fin Set is an upright template, unlike the Machado Twin Keel, making it a more performance-driven option. It allows for tighter arcing turns, letting surfers push their limits while maintaining flow. "You can push the 2+1 in turns, and it will hold whatever line you're trying to draw," says Rob Machado.
- Compatible with Futures Fin Boxes (Single Tab)
- Ideal for hybrid boards & high-performance surfing
