Introducing Futures alpha series
Morpheus
AN ONGOING PROJECT DEDICATED TO BUILDING PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS IN THE U.S.A.
At Futures, our facility is the core of our business. Allowing us to make improvements daily, push the boundaries of innovation and take pride in American made products.
Our Huntington Beach headquarters grants us the capacity to innovate and evolve every day.
Without this facility we would be an entirely different company.
Our complete involvement with the manufacturing processes allows us to learn, adapt & refine under one roof. It allows us to change and make improvements. It allows us to be Morpheus.
We are proud of our products.
Each one is deserving of the Futures logo because we know that they are engineered by us from start to finish. They offer the customer something more, because we have unique abilities to innovate and the creativity to re-invent.
Morpheus is our story.
It’s a story of change and adaptation.
Morpheus is an idea that the more we can do ourselves in one building, the more knowledge we have to create better products for you. It’s our dedication to building performance products in the USA.
Morpheus is the DNA of our company.
Alpha
CARBON LIKE YOU’VE NEVER SEEN IT BEFORE
The first fin born from our Morpheus project is ALPHA! We are proud to announce that all materials, molds, dimensions, and manufacturing processes were thought up, developed and produced entirely in the USA.
Alpha
THE FIRST OF IT'S KIND
Molded carbon fiber made in Huntington Beach, California that delivers every bit of performance you’d expect from an upgrade fin at a Balanced Ride Number. Incredibly lightweight & resilient, Alpha is the first of its kind; created using one-of-a-kind materials and new technologies developed by Futures.
Compound 6
CARBON & AIR INFUSED
We have developed a brand new material blend that is lighter than Honeycomb and the next step in innovation for Futures. Infused with the resiliency of carbon fiber and the lightness of air, this is the most advanced injection fin material ever created. Working with the talented team at 3M, we were able to combine two key features that make our exclusive material so impressive.
Carbon Infused
LIGHTWEIGHT & RESILIENT
First, we infused carbon fiber which has a higher strength to weight ratio than fiberglass. By replacing fiberglass with carbon fiber, the Alpha line is more lightweight & resilient than your standard fiberglass or plastic injection fins.
Air Infused
LIGHTWEIGHT & STRONG
Second, we infused air. Yes, air! With our friends at 3M, we were able to develop a one-of-a-kind composite material that creates air pockets in the fin to reduce weight without sacrificing structural integrity.
Flow Texture
DECREASED DRAG & FIN HUM
After testing various surface geometries behind a jet-ski, we found a 3D flow texture that controls the separation pattern and influences the boundary layer to reduce the hydrodynamic turbulent wake drag. The result is a more predictable and efficient flow with a significant reduction in the audible whistle heard while surfing called “fin hum.”
Re-designed Flex
STABLE BASE. SPRINGY TIP.
With the added resiliency & strength of carbon fiber, we were able to go back to the drawing board and restructure the profile geometry of our Alpha line. The strength of the fibers allowed us to modify the flex pattern by removing material from tip for more spring and adding it to the base for more drive.
Precision Tooling
STEEL MOLDS MADE IN-HOUSE
At Futures, we’re professional mold makers. Have been since day one. We designed, cut & polished molds for the Alpha line at our headquarters in Huntington Beach. This level of involvement with our product is what allows us to push beyond the boundaries of what’s expected from your surf equipment.
Made in USA
HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA
The first fin born from our Morpheus project is ALPHA! We are proud to announce that all materials, molds, dimensions, and manufacturing processes were thought up, developed and produced entirely in the USA.
Flat Foil
RELIABLE AND FAMILIAR
The Flat Foil is the most available foil in the Futures line and is a very reliable option for all conditions. You will find that they work especially well when making late drops or stalling for the barrel are your primary concern because of their controlled and stable feel.
