True Ames Troy Elmore Flex Single Fin

The Volan fiberglass construction provides a refined flex that loads up energy during a turn and releases it as you exit. This creates a springy, responsive feel that helps you maintain speed through maneuvers, rather than the stiff, locked-in sensation of standard fiberglass fins.

Yes, it works well on traditional logs. While it offers more maneuverability than a classic pivot fin, the wide base still provides enough hold and stability to keep your board feeling grounded and predictable on the nose.

This fin is highly versatile. It excels in average, everyday conditions where you want a balance of drive and turning ability, but it also performs well in cleaner, point-break waves where you can really utilize the sensitive tip for smooth rail-to-rail transitions.

An 8-inch base offers a solid platform for drive without being overly cumbersome. It provides enough surface area to hold your line through turns, but is small enough to allow for tighter, more responsive arcs compared to larger, more traditional single fins.

Hand-laid Volan fiberglass offers a superior strength-to-weight ratio and a more consistent, lively flex pattern that molded fins cannot replicate. It is the gold standard for longboard fins because it provides a classic, authentic feel that improves with use.
