Brand

FMX Racing is driven by a deep desire to deliver world class products to the windsurfing market that enable racers to win and customers to smile.

Drawing from 23 World Titles/Records (14 athlete / 9 designer-shaper) & 40 years of competition, shaping, design, fabrication, sanding/finishing, testing and development experience, FMX Racing owner Finian Maynard began his windsurfing board building career on Maui in 1991. Having learned his initial skill set as a young man directly from legendary #1 master shaper Jimmy Lewis, alongside working with racing industry pioneers Richard Greene and Phil McGain, yet more invaluable knowledge, experience and understanding was learned in the historical mecca of windsurfing – Haiku. This forged a solid base from which a highly successful career was formed.

Fast forward to today and in only five years of existence FMX Racing has risen to become the top ranked windsurfing racing brand in the world. With an R&D base in the best testing location in the world – Tarifa, Spain, the ability to design in the latest 3d CAD software, shape with 5-axis machining, then to work hands on and check every technical step during the fabrication of the protos. Following on with the ability to test, modify and test again in one location is a powerful tool that simply ensures high-quality products on an ongoing and repeatable basis.

Combine this setup with a strong international team, the consistently excellent international competition results from the past 6 years (2019-2024 seasons) and also working closely with the Kinetic board factory to deliver the market leading world-class build & finishing quality.

From this platform it is clearly evident that the technical groundwork for success is right there, ready to be appreciated and enjoyed by you, the customer.

This is the Commitment to Excellence.
