TESTING THE NEW TRANSFORMER MODEL FOR 2010

Posted on Friday, 05 February 2010

The all new TRANSFORMER model for 2010 was put to test today! The board as the name suggests is a TRANSFORMER, and like its cartoon counter parts can change from one thing to another! The board has been set up as a 5 fin, which includes a 8"box and FCS. A lot of time and effort was put into this fin set up, you can ride it as a quad, thruster, single fin, 3fin bonzer, endless combinations ,making this board a lot of fun and very adaptable! The Skindog team and Gerran from FCS took it to a left point near Bude this afternoon and tested it with various fin combinations. The out come was better than we thought with everyone loving it! This board will suit the creative surfer wanting to discover the different feels that fin set ups can offer. We reckon that anyone would struggle, not to have fun on this board! It will be available from 5'6 upwards. Available next week in the online shop that goes live this weekend, and of course from our stockists! Skindog is claiming it as his new everyday board, and absolutely loves it!! SKINDOG SLOTTED ON THE 5 FIN SET UP, IMAGE COURTESY OF http://www.360photography.co.uk/ THE TRANSFORMERS OUTLINE. THE TRANSFORMER SET UP WITH THE 5 FIN BONZER. "This Board felt amazing!! It went so well as a 5 fin bonzer I nearly didnt get out to transform my fin setup... Im glad I did.. It went so good as a normal 5 fin as well that I am so excited to try all of the other combos this board allows!" Skindog Happy to oblige with a quote mate. This looks like a really fun board! I was messing around with a Bonzer up in Indo a few years ago. It was great. “Changing your fin configuration will effectively change the way your board feels and performs in a variety of different conditions. FCS has a huge range of fin templates available in a range of materials and foils to suit any board model on the market. This basically gives surfers the freedom to totally customize their equipment, and in the end this equates to better surfing. At FCS we live by the motto, change your fins and feel the difference” Richie Lovett – FCS Brand Ambassador / Former ASP Wold Tour Competitor
