FCD Step Deck (Clear)

The FCD Step Deck (Clear), produced by FCD Surfboards and available through Patagonia Australia, represents a significant evolution in surfboard design. This high-performance surfboard is quintessentially crafted for serious surfers looking to elevate their capabilities in challenging conditions. Offered in lengths ranging from 5'10" to 7'10", the Step Deck is engineered with additional volume concentrated precisely where it's needed most, allowing for enhanced paddle power and maneuverability. The refined rail profile ensures that even with this added volume, surfers can maintain fluidity and control through turns, optimizing performance in both solid waves and more forgiving conditions.

At the core of the FCD Step Deck’s innovative design is its three distinct sub-models: High Performance, Gun, and Psycho. Each variant is tailored to its intended application, from the responsive flip of the High Performance model to the robust capabilities of the Gun version, which thrives in large swells. The Step Deck’s clever incorporation of increased volume—typically around 2-4 liters for standard sizes—enables riders to experience greater stability and confidence in powerful surf, while a thinner rail maintains agility and responsiveness. The versatile fin setup options, including quad and 5-fin configurations for smaller models, further enhance the board's adaptability, catering to a variety of surfing styles and conditions.

Available at a price point of $1,395.00, the FCD Step Deck (Clear) not only caters to high expectations in performance but also showcases aesthetic appeal with its sleek clear finish. Whether you're a middle-of-the-pack surfer or pushing toward professional status, this board stands as a testament to FCD’s commitment to innovation and quality in surfboard craftsmanship.
