The Futures Controller Alpha is a large size quad set with a Ride Number of 5.7. Designed specifically for the classic, wide-tailed retro board the Alpha Controller is effectively a split keel and offers a unique blend of twin and quad characteristics. The C6 material, V2 foil and large surface area create both drive and control, while the upright rear template mixes in a skatey feel to the set as a whole. All Alpha products are designed and manufactured exclusively in Huntington Beach, Ca USA.

Speed Generating vs Speed Control - RIDE NUMBER EXPLAINED
A TOOL TO HELP YOU SURF BETTER
Using Ride Number is easy, you just have to understand the feelings of Speed Generating and Speed Control. On one end of the Ride Number scale is Speed Generating fins. These fins feel responsive and provide that extra spring most often wanted when the surf is lacking power. On the opposite side is Speed Control. These fins feel solid, engaged, and predictable providing that extra hold usually only needed when the surf is cranking. The middle ground is Balanced, offering a mix of the two extremes for an all around feel. Just remember, When you’re pumping – Speed Generating, when the waves are pumping – Speed Control
