The Fin
The Thruster's design inspiration and key elements include... taking everything it has learned about making glass on tri fins over the past 40+ years and rolling all of that into this design. The TA tri is another template from the in-house collection and is the version of the tried and true thruster design that was first popularized in the early 80's and has continually evolved since. These 3 fins are all the same size and feature a solid all-around profile made for all-purpose high performance surfing. Built for speed, increased drive, fluid turns, and attacking the wave with precision & control.

What people say
Speed, drive, and control with a consistent, predictable release — smooth, responsive, and controlled with confident rail-to-rail flow.
Run this set on a shortboard or hybrid when you want drive off the bottom and a release off the top that lets go in a measured way rather than all at once. If you want a smoother, trim-and-glide thruster feel, go with the Skip Frye Tri; for more hold and bite in steep, powerful surf, look at a Timmy Patterson thruster.
More About This Fin
