It's incredible how many people have misquoted that scene but still made a meme.

Album fascination but not sure about the tail rocker part. I use them on my cc nautilus.
+1 Album fascination. I use them in my Gibbons Quad fish (wide swallow). But can't say it has generous tail rocker.
They really lit the board up.
I've liked the TA Tyler Warren and Album quads in several different boars: roundtail, fish, swallow
Same template as their TA, NVS, and shapers upright twin? Doesn’t seem to be on Futures site yet. https://albumsurf.com/products/album-x-futures-twin
Weird. I only have the Shapers PT ones but had kinda assumed they were all the same fin but it seems the 4 album upright twins have slightly different specs:
Anybody tried the new(ish?) Pyzel Futures in medium? I'm on the hunt for a more balanced, larger medium template while waiting for a custom. Seem like they have pretty refined tips, and more base than depth which is uncommon. Or if anybody has any recs for a balanced, larger medium template I'm all ears.

Pyzel Medium Thruster
The Pyzel Medium thruster, designed by North Shore shaper Jon Pyzel, is in the Neutral template category. Featuring carbon fiber at the base and honeycomb through the body, the combination of materials gives this set a springy flex pattern suited for generating speed.

Did you look at the F6 template as well?
there are quite a few ~15sq in sets out there. Some are labeled medium and others larges so it makes it harder to find them.

Good fin. I pretty much surf like JJF when I run those.

I've ridden the newer Pyzel M's as a quad a few times when borrowing a buddies board. I liked them quite a lot. I haven't ridden the thruster config of the newer ones but I used to ride the control series Pyzel M in my step ups and I liked them. Similar arc to the JJF M but a little more drive. I think the older one is a very similar template but looking at the numbers it looks like the newer one has slightly more area.
I've ridden the mediums as a thruster in my new stepup and they felt great but slid out when pushing hard through turns. Large's aren't as spicy but I'd rather go for hold on that kind of board.
Ridden the mediums with 3.75 quad rear on my 6'1 round and it felt great. Need to try as thruster on that board next.
I really like neutral templates and that one feels good.

Those Pyzel twins look good. I think Griffin would have liked them.
Never tried them. Always thought these were more of a step-up fin. Isn’t techflex generally considered too stiff for everyday waves?
