The Rob Machado signature fin was designed by legendary style-master with a combination of carbon and bamboo materials, giving this fin a slightly stiffer flex pattern compared to the Blackstix while the V2 foil helps to generate speed. Machado’s fin has a balanced template, allowing it to perform in a variety of conditions. We love this fin on any of our high performance short boards. In line with Rob's values to protect the earth his fin incorporates sustainable material within.

Futures Fins began in a garage in California in 1996. Backed by industry leaders with over 50 years of surfboard building experience, the Longo brothers were able to use their engineering backgrounds to create products involving something they were passionate about, Surfing. Today our passion for surfing and our commitment remains the same, and since Futures is a family owned business they are much more concerned with impressing you, the board-rider, than any board member. The designers, the engineers, the marketing department and the shipping crew all surf, and we’re all stoked when other surfers come back and tell us how the products work for them. They thrive on experimentation, innovation, and out-of-the-box thinking. The Futures team has the ability to dream up a fin, design it, cut it and surf it, all in a matter of hours under one roof in California. With this ability, they have the freedom to create a lot of designs to bring the surfer and paddler the ultimate in fin technology.
Groundswell Supply has chosen Futures as our first fin supplier based on their extreme commitment to innovation, design and quality. It's no secret that Futures has expanded the horizon in fin technology through the years and has proven to be both highly functional and stylish as evidenced by the thousands of avid surfers that ride Futures all over the globe. Although Futures roots are in surfing, they have recently expanded the product line for the paddle market as well and have a variety of designs to cover both surfing and paddle sports. At Groundswell Supply we have a strong commiment to offering the best the market has to offer, to this end we are proud to be working with Futures fins for industry leading fin systems.
