These fins are designed by George Greenough and are targeted at the "Edge" board project. The outline is a very slender design that will harness heaps of power while maintaining very low drag. Longer, point break style waves are the venue to realize full potential. Look for more on this design in the future as we experiment with different materials and flex patterns. Currently, True Ames is making these fins in Volan and they try to keep them relatively stiff. If there is too much flex they tend to lose power.
The True Ames Volan fins are fine tuned with a precision foil as well as proper flex. They are handmade in their factory and go through the strictest quality control. Fins made with Volan fiberglass and properly aligned for optimal weave orientation have very high performance flex characteristics with the flex coming more from the body of the fin rather than just at the tip.
Product Info
Cleanline Staff Sammy Says:"The True Ames Greenough Volan High Speed is an excellent single fin to use on a longboard designed for speed and spring. I have a 9.25” in my 8’8” Wilderness George Greenough Edge Board. With the lack of surface area in the fin, I’m able to project the board through turns and surf rail to rail easily while counteracting the bit of hold I get when the board planes on the narrower surface of the board. This fin works best in specifically designed boards versus a standard log or mid-size board unless you’re looking for a loose feel with little hold."
