Design and Feel
The M.R. TX fins are a specialty fin made for twin fin, super twin, or fish surfboards and are pretty much identical to the FCS MR TFX fins. However the major different between the two fin sets is that the MR TX fins are constructed using FCS Glass Flex material.
The Glass Flex construction of these fins is designed to be identical to traditional fiberglass fins.
