JW-1 Julian Wilson FCS Fins
FCS wanted Julian to come up with some thing quite simple and the K2.1 was the starting point to get the fin Julian and FCS finally come up with being the JW-1 “These fins help with release off the top a lot easier” says Julian. The base in these fins are sturdier and offer flex in the tip. “These fins can be used from one foot, up to six foot ” Julian adds.
JW-1 Julian Wilson FCS Fins
If you can do it, these fins can do it.
FCS adds that, Performance Glass material characteristics and the flex pattern, are identical to traditional fibreglass fins, but offering a stiff base, with subtle responsive tip flex.
FCS and Julian agree, that the JW-1 have amazing aesthetics and proven durability and they even look sick.

BEAN Surfing Lately?
“Board Meeting”
Back at the Kawana beach break not long ago, where the “Board Meeting” Charity Surf Meet was recently held, a little known Surfboard model known as the BEAN was bean’ surfed by any one that wanted to give it a go, a sort of a Demo board if you like. Well this board, or BEAN as the model is known as, is an Aloha BEAN and manufactured by Global Surf Industries. Not just an ordinary Aloha Bean, not necessarily saying that any Bean is ordinary, they are all great boards for a variety of surf conditions, but this BEAN i’m going to rave about is the New Carbon Railed Epoxy Lightweight SLXC and is Stringerless! Meaning this BEAN just got better!
BEAN Surfing Lately?
This model is more commonly referred to as a Pod, as it is essentially a hybrid model, but still considered high performance suiting small to medium surf, and a ripper of a fun board in the shore break. This BEAN SLXC has a slightly fuller nose for flotation for paddling and start up acceleration. The relaxed entry rocker maintains speed and glide and a slight single to double concave with a tail run out v, delivers response and bite, where it’s needed for smooth rail to rail changes. The tail rocker and sharp rails complete the design, and you can surf it right in the pocket.
Getting back to the “Board Meeting” held at Kawana and the caning this BEAN SLXC
got on the day. Various guys had a go at it but the stand out was this surfer I’ll call “Mean”, because what he did to the bean in the some times overhead shitty shore break at Kawana was absolutely “Mean” He ripped the hell out of the head high dumpers with reo’s, snaps, and aggressive turns driving off the bottom hitting the lip and taking the big reo, oh yeah! so what you say!, all this on a little 5’9″ Bean SLXC. This “Mean” guy was a whopping big guy weighing in at least 90 kg plus, on a board that suited max 75kg. NOT a STRESS Mark in sight upon inspection afterward s! Construction is everything!
Construction Is Everything
The BEAN SLXC construction further enhances to versatility of this BEAN. The stringer has been tossed out for a perimeter biaxial carbon rail system and a biaxial epoxy deck lay up over EPS core. No stringer allows the board a bit of flex to fit the contours of the wave more naturally through turns, and the biaxial glass and outer carbon rail produces that ‘snap back’ feel for amazing response. Not to put a finer point on its fin systems, you can fit it as a Quad or Thruster configuration, to further enhance your surfing freedom.

McTAVISH SURFBOARD BOBSLED
If it’s it about time you got some serious fun back in your life well there’s this thing called a Bobsled and that will do it! This new surfboard offering by McTavish in conjunction with Global Surf Industries, has taken the ho hum out, and put in some life back into surfing.
McTavish Surfboard Bobsled – Features
This is an extraordinary beast of a board with rocket like performance in a neo-classic design and in typical Mctavish fashion, has loaded it with features.
It boasts a low entry rocker and higher volume for easy paddling. A new quad fin set up that also doubles as a twin fin, and with a pulled in tail for fantastic manoeuvrability…sick!
This quad set up gives this bobsled speed to burn with more thrust than a thruster, and turning ability for face pivots, snappy pumps, and big gouges. The bigger volume paddles well for any big guy that likes a short board, with plenty of floatation to surf it hard and quik.
