Futures Fins
The Longo brothers had a reputation for tackling challenging aerospace parts and fabricating hydrogen fuel cells for research, but in 1996 they decided to combine their technical know-how with something they loved. Surfing. They have always considered building locally extremely important, and now this allows us at Futures to dream up a fin, design it, cut it and surf it, all in a matter of hours under one roof in Huntington Beach. With this ability, we constantly evolve our designs, creating new feelings and new experiences. Sharing these new innovations with other surfers is what fuels our devotion to progression.
As innovators, we are driven to improve, to never settle. Each wave is an opportunity to develop, to learn and grow. Surfers have been riding waves for hundreds of years, and it is with deep respect that we continually refine surf equipment with feedback from the elite surfers and shapers in the world. We continue to learn together so that we can in turn equip the beginning surfer to the world champ with the right product, and clear information so they can easily dial in their equipment. This is why we spend our resources on tools like The Ride Number and a bunch of in house engineers instead of relying on the next flashy advertising campaign.
We believe this is why surfers all over the world consider Futures the ultimate source for exceptional performance surf equipment created by surfers for surfers. It is about being authentic, challenging the status quo, and standing for the evolution of our sport. Sometimes it is even about pushing beyond what appears to make sense, because we believe that we can’t find our limits unless we try to push past them. That is why we were the first to make a pre-lamination fin box that gets its strength from the fiberglass. Then later, when surfers were testing the limits of waves that were no longer paddle-able, we were the first to develop stiff stable big wave fins.
We continue to develop new products like Alpha, and tools like Ride Number. These are just the beginning. We would love to tell you more about the next products that are coming, but we can’t. At least just not yet. Thank you for joining us in this journey.
ROAM
BOARD COVERS
ROAM board bags are designed for purpose. We use only premium materials and function led features to ensure maximum usability. We use HD padding, hard wearing fabrics and double stitched seams throughout, plus essential details like ventilation, grab handles and buckle free straps. Plus all our bags are cut longer to fit the board they are labelled for.
All ROAM board bags are tried, tested and approved.
LEASHES
ROAM leashes use only the best components and materials - stainless steel swivels, super durable webbing, neoprene, moulded connectors and high grade urethane cord.
We know the value of a good leash and how much a bad leash can ruin a great surf. All of our leashes are tried, tested and approved.
TRACTION
ROAM traction offers a super compact range, designed to fit all boards and all surf styles. Our 3 models are designed for the full spectrum of surf - from wider boards to narrow performance boards, front foot style or locked in back foot surfing.
