that's very cool- well done

Looks good.... How much $$ ?

I have just recently fitted Shapers S7 quads to my Fanatic 9'6 pro wave (Futures) and love them. I really noticed the difference when paddling for a wave as the board tracks straighter and they allow beautiful carving turns. You can really feel the flex in the fins as opposed the very stiff stock fins. I also noticed more drive in different situations where I might have used the paddle into the next section the fins seem to take over. Funny how changing fins can radically change a board so much.

They'd look great in my Starby Pro 9'0. What's the measurement from top to base?

Here is the new Surf Fx quad fin set from Shapers.
There are two sizes, Medium and Large.
Large is designed around boards like the 8'10 Starboard wide point and 8'8 JP Surf wide etc.
The Medium size is for smaller boards. Large size is equivalent to a S9,S3 set and the medium is S7,S3. Rears are symmetrical.

are they much different to the jc01 carbon flare shapers quads?

The Large set is the same as the Jackson set, the Medium set has slightly smaller fronts - same rears.

any chance I can buy the quad fins for the surf fx or Jackson close fins singly - have broken one of the front fins of the Jackson close set on a rock , lost one of the surf fx front fins on a reef

Sorry TD, we can do pairs no problem though. Give us a call if you want some.

Here are some pics of the New thrusters compared to the FCS M7

JustBernie,
If you want your board to be more 'shortboard' in feel then the thruster set is excellent. If you are after more of a map feel with deeper, slower turns then look at Shapers 6" thruster set. Its has a nice 6" centre and the side fins from the KS (Kelly Slater-ish).

hey SoCal,

The Surf FX Quad set (L) is perfect for the 8'8 X32. As a thruster setup the FX setup may be a bit small for the width of your board. A good setup would be something like the FCS HI set. They are a little bigger and would have a bit more drive.

Cheers
