The Fin
Designed by Christian Beamish of Surfboards California, this twin set nicely fits into the catalog as one of the newer style hybrid-keel offerings. Not quite a twin, and not quite a keel - these fins provide some of the feelings and attributes that can be found within both classic designs. The gentle amount rake and the moderately sized profile will still allow for plenty and maneuverability and responsiveness, but they won't sacrifice the drive and power that surfers look for.

What people say
Keep enough of the drive and hold of the keel while introducing the release and looseness of the upright twin.
Way more single fin than Thruster, but still with the ability to jam it in the hook of the wave.
A hybrid fin that refuses to apologize for leaning keel. Bottom turns go long and committed — the wide base delivers keel-level drive and projection while the moderate rake and height let you actually pivot out of the turn. Riders looking for snappy skate-release exits will find it claustrophobic; everyone else gets the drive without the lock-in.
More About This Fin
The Beamish Twin was designed by Carpinteria shaper Christian Beamish of Surfboards California and is produced by True Ames in solid fiberglass with a raw sanded finish. It comes in one size with a Futures-compatible base, measuring 5.21 inches tall with a 6.27-inch base, and carries 80/20 foils and 5.5 degrees of cant. It was built for Beamish's twin fin boards — round-pin channel bottoms and double-wing swallows — which cluster in the 5'7"–6'2" range.
Similar Fins
TA Twin
A looser fin at the same price; Beamish himself cites preferring the TA Twin at 5.1" on round-pin channel bottom shapes where larger fins buck at the turn apex.
FCS II Performer
Priced against the Beamish Twin but delivers a looser, more release-happy ride.
