-
Best For: Dry, well-maintained natural grass pitches.
-
Stud Profile: Long & Sharp. Typically features 11-13 blades or conical studs spaced widely apart.
-
Core Advantage: Maximum Traction. Designed to penetrate the soil deeply for explosive acceleration and sharp turns.
-
Designer's Warning: This is the standard for professional matches. However, NEVER use FG on Artificial Grass (AG). The grip is too aggressive, which can lead to stud breakage or serious knee/ankle injuries (ACL).
