Carbon Bomb Proof Thruster Fins - Futures (Single Tab)

Our lightest. Our fastest. Built to last.

The Surfboard Trading Co. Bomb Proof Carbon Fiber Surfboard Fins are built from 100% molded carbon fiber to create an exceptionally lightweight, fast, and durable performance fin.

Designed with a neutral, balanced template, these carbon surfboard fins deliver an all-around combination of speed, control, and predictability that works across a wide range of surfboards and wave conditions.

Unlike traditional heavier fin constructions, our molded carbon construction produces a fin so lightweight that it floats on water rather than sinking. Each fin is finished with a smooth, performance-focused surface designed to repel water and reduce unnecessary resistance through the water.

The result is the lightest and fastest surfboard fin we’ve ever made.

Available in Medium and Large sizes, with Single Tab variants compatible with the Futures fin system.

Lightweight. Fast. Balanced. Bomb Proof.

Why Carbon Fiber?

100% MOLDED CARBON FIBER

The Bomb Proof fin is constructed from 100% carbon fiber using a molded manufacturing process designed to create an exceptionally lightweight and durable surfboard fin.

Carbon fiber’s high strength-to-weight characteristics allow us to build a fin with the structure needed for performance surfing without unnecessary weight.

The result is a fin designed around speed, responsiveness, and longevity.

OUR LIGHTEST SURFBOARD FIN

Weight matters when you’re trying to keep a surfboard feeling responsive.

Bomb Proof Carbon Fins are the lightest fins we’ve ever produced—so lightweight that they float on water instead of sinking.

Less unnecessary fin weight helps preserve the light, responsive feeling surfers want from a performance surfboard.

BUILT FOR SPEED

Each Bomb Proof Carbon Fin receives a smooth finish designed to repel water and move efficiently through the water.

Combined with its extremely lightweight carbon construction, the result is the fastest-feeling fin we’ve produced.

Neutral, Balanced Performance

Not every surfer needs an extremely specialized fin.

The Bomb Proof Carbon Fin uses a neutral, balanced template designed to provide an all-around blend of speed, control, and responsiveness.

That makes it a versatile option for surfers who ride different waves and want a dependable fin setup without dramatically changing the personality of their surfboard.

Speed when you need it. Control when you push harder. Predictability through everyday conditions.

Choose Your Fin Size

Medium — 120–165 lbs

Choose the Medium Carbon Fin if you’re between approximately 120 and 165 lbs and want a balanced combination of speed, responsiveness, and control.

Large — 170–230 lbs

Choose the Large Carbon Fin if you’re between approximately 170 and 230 lbs and want the additional fin area appropriate for a larger surfer while maintaining the lightweight characteristics of carbon construction.

Single Tab / Futures Compatibility

Our Single Tab Bomb Proof Carbon Fin variants are compatible with the Futures fin system.

If your surfboard uses Futures-compatible single-tab fin boxes, select the appropriate Single Tab option and size for your setup.

Always verify your surfboard’s fin system before ordering.

Bomb Proof Construction

We call them Bomb Proof for a reason.

The molded 100% carbon fiber construction is designed to provide greater durability and longevity than traditional fin manufacturing methods while maintaining an exceptionally lightweight performance feel.

For surfers who put a lot of time in the water, that means a fin designed not only to perform—but to keep performing.

What are carbon fiber surfboard fins?

Carbon fiber surfboard fins use carbon-fiber material to create a lightweight, stiff, performance-oriented fin. Our Bomb Proof fins are made from 100% molded carbon fiber and designed around speed, responsiveness, durability, and minimal weight.

What does a neutral surfboard fin mean?

A neutral fin uses a balanced template rather than emphasizing one extreme performance characteristic.

The Bomb Proof Carbon Fin is designed to provide a versatile combination of speed, control, hold, and responsiveness, making it suitable for a wide range of everyday surf conditions.

Are carbon fiber surfboard fins lightweight?

Yes. Weight is one of the defining characteristics of our Bomb Proof Carbon Fins.

They’re the lightest surfboard fins we’ve ever made and are lightweight enough to float on the surface of the water rather than sink.

Are these fins 100% carbon fiber?

Yes. Bomb Proof Carbon Fins are constructed from 100% molded carbon fiber.

Do Bomb Proof Carbon Fins float?

Yes. Their extremely lightweight construction allows the fins to float on water.

Always confirm the fin-box system installed in your surfboard before ordering.

What size carbon surfboard fin should I choose?

We recommend:

Medium: Surfers approximately 120–165 lbs
Large: Surfers approximately 170–230 lbs

Rider weight is a useful starting point, although surfboard design, wave conditions, surfing style, and personal preference can also influence fin selection.

What is the benefit of a lighter surfboard fin?

Reducing unnecessary weight helps maintain a surfboard’s lightweight and responsive feel. Combined with a balanced template, our carbon construction is designed to provide fast, responsive performance without unnecessary fin weight.

Are carbon fiber fins good for everyday surfing?

Yes. Although carbon fiber is a performance material, the neutral template of the Bomb Proof Carbon Fin makes it suitable for everyday surfing.

Rather than designing the fin exclusively for one type of wave or surfing style, we designed it as a balanced all-around option.

Are carbon fiber surfboard fins durable?

Bomb Proof fins are designed specifically with durability in mind. Their molded carbon construction is intended to provide longer-lasting performance than our traditional manufacturing methods.
