Hobie Log Flex (Volan)

By True Ames
From $116.00 USD

Hobie Log Flex (Volan) - Single Fin, Hand-Laid Premium Construction. A classic Hobie-inspired log fin built in True Ames' premium Volan layup, ideal for traditional noseriders and displacement-style longboards. Volan construction is meticulously hand-laid with 44-layer panels and optimized weave orientation so the fin flexes from the body and trunk rather than just the tip, enhancing speed, projection, and smooth transitions.

Fin Construction: Volan
Designer Name: Hobart Laidlaw "Hobie" Alter
Designer Origin: Ontario, California; Laguna Beach/Dana Point, California
Designer Bio: Alter's design legacy is less about a single signature fin and more about building the modern platform fins evolved on: he helped drive the shift to lighter, faster, more responsive foam-and-fiberglass boards and scaled surfboard production. In 1958, working with Gordon "Grubby" Clark, Alter pioneered polyurethane foam blanks and fiberglass construction.
