You've committed to a mid-length, so set it up properly. These 3.6" side bytes come from FCS's GL template, a late-'90s design that has stood the test of time. Paired with your single fin, they add bite and response when you turn, so the board flows down the line but still tightens up higher on the face. Cut from Performance Glass in the Natural/Alpine colourway.
For mid-length riders who want a stable, versatile 2+1 that encourages smooth flow without losing the ability to tighten up their turns. They're at their best on open-face, down-the-line waves at points and reefs.
