23 June, 2011 : - - FCS Team rider Julian Wilson recently gave his new signature fin the FCS JW-1 the official tick of approval by winning the ASP Prime Quiksilver Pro Portugal. Julian was a clear standout during the event and put on a near perfect display in the final against Gabriel Medina.
"This would have to be the biggest win of my career to date, and it feels amazing. It's nice to have all the hard work pay off and everything come together”.
The release of the JW-1 comes after a long development period which saw Julian testing his fin at a variety of different locations around the world. Having only been on the market a short time, the FCS JW-1 is already being adopted by many top ASP professionals.
Julian further commented on his equipment, and how it played a role in the victory. "My boards felt great for the entire week and my new signature FCS fin performed really well in all the different conditions, it did the job perfectly!”.
The FCS JW-1 is a medium size fin geared towards fast, aggressive surfing. The side fin template lends elements of Kelly Slater’s K2.1 and the FCS G-5, delivering fast pivotal surfing in critical sections. A slightly smaller centre fin template also triggers quick tail release.
