Jeremy Flores has signed a 2 year deal with FCS to work together on fin development and research. Jeremy has ridden FCS exclusively throughout his career and is now officially on the Test Team! “It is great to have Jeremy on the team. He offers his own unique perspective on fin performance and can provide valuable feedback as we continue to develop the FCS system and fins.” Say’s Michael Durante, product development manager for FCS.

Jeremy has had a great first year on the WCT thus far and his recent 3rd place at Trestles last week put him in the lead for the ASP rookie of the year award. Jeremy is very in tune with his equipment and changes fins regularly depending on the boards he is riding and the surf he is in. “I use FCS because I’ve always found the right dimensions. They have so many different models for every kind of wave and conditions!” Say’s Jeremy. His favorite fins at the moment are the FCS FG-5s.

“FCS has worked really well for Jeremy through his growing years. With all the models they have to offer it has made it easy to change to bigger fins. In many instances we were able to change the fins on his favorite boards rather than needing to shape a different board. As Jeremy continues to advance his surfing career, FCS will be a valuable partner to ensure he always gets the best performance from his boards.” Mark Phipps, Jeremy’s shaper.

“We have worked closely with Jeremy throughout his career to ensure he always has the best fins for his equipment and I am really pleased to have him formally on the team. Jeremy is a hero to so many European surfers and will be a great spokesperson to educate surfers on the benefits of FCS.” David Lebacheley, European Team manager.
