Instant Speed, Elastic Flex and Organic Aesthetics with Rob Machado's Template in Blackstix Bamboo Construction
Designed to turn flat wave days into pure fun sessions, the Futures Rob Machado Blackstix 3.0 Bamboo fin set is the masterpiece of California's most fluid surfer. This set combines the most advanced carbon fiber technology with natural materials to offer unmatched elastic response and outstanding speed generation.
The Blackstix 3.0 construction stands out for incorporating a highly rigid carbon base that channels energy, combined with a core of real bamboo that softens the flex at the tip. Thanks to its revolutionary V2 Foil (a three-dimensional concave profile on the inner face of the side fins), these fins act like an airplane wing, sucking water to actively generate lift and speed with just pumping the board. With a Ride Number of 8.0 (Speed Generating), it is the definitive set to get the maximum performance from your shortboard or hybrid in small to medium sized waves.
