FCS II Performer Medium Tri Fins – Black
FCS II Performer Medium Tri Fin Set – Black | Australian Made
The FCS II Performer Medium Tri Fin Set in Black is an Australian-made thruster fin designed to deliver the ideal balance of speed, flow and response across a wide variety of surf conditions.
Manufactured in Warriewood, New South Wales, these Performer Glass Flex fins combine FCS's proven all-round template with precise Australian manufacturing and a durable nylon 6 polymer construction. They're an excellent choice for surfers looking for a dependable FCS II thruster fin that performs across everything from everyday beach breaks to clean point and reef waves.
Australian Made
These FCS Performer fins are made in Australia at Warriewood on Sydney's Northern Beaches.
FCS describes them as being produced by local fin makers with more than 20 years of experience, combining the established Performer template with Australian manufacturing.
For surfers looking for an Australian-made FCS fin at an accessible price point, they're a particularly interesting alternative to many conventional moulded fin sets.
Performer – Find Balance
The Performer is FCS's all-round fin family.
Rather than being heavily biased towards maximum speed, powerful carving or extreme pivot, the template is designed around a balance of:
Speed + Flow + Response
That makes the Performer an excellent choice if you want one dependable thruster fin set for a broad range of boards and conditions.
FCS recommends the Performer across all board types and for conditions ranging from beach breaks through to point and reef breaks.
Inside Foil Technology
The Performer features FCS Inside Foil Technology (IFT).
The inside faces of the side fins use a sophisticated foil rather than being completely flat, helping create a smooth combination of speed, drive and manoeuvrability.
It's one of the reasons the Performer feels so balanced — providing enough drive to generate speed while retaining the flow and response needed to link turns together.
Glass Flex Construction
These Australian-made Performers use Glass Flex (GF) construction, moulded from engineering-grade polymer.
FCS tunes the flex of Glass Flex fins to help surfers maintain speed and acceleration through turns and manoeuvres.
Glass Flex also makes the Performer a particularly good option for beginner through intermediate surfers progressing beyond basic fins, while the proven Performer template remains versatile enough for more experienced surfers wanting an affordable everyday fin set.
Medium – 65kg to 80kg
The Australian-made Performer Tri Set comes in Medium, recommended by FCS for surfers weighing approximately:
65–80kg / 145–175lb
If you're within this weight range, the Medium Performer provides a balanced combination of hold, drive and manoeuvrability without feeling excessively stiff or oversized.
Fin Specifications
| Specification | Medium |

Wide Range of Surf Conditions
The Performer isn't designed around one particular type of wave.
FCS recommends it across a wide range of conditions from beach breaks to point breaks, making it a very useful everyday fin for New Zealand surfing.
That versatility makes the Performer particularly suitable if you regularly surf different breaks or want a reliable fin set that can stay in your board rather than constantly changing fins as conditions change.
