Every 4A size with its measurements and the boards it suits. Rule of thumb: 1 inch of fin per foot of board, rounded up. For 2+1 setups drop 1.5–2" from your single-fin size — the side bites add hold, so the center fin can be smaller.

Size up if you're over 200 lbs, riding a narrow-tailed board, or surfing overhead+ waves. Size down for wide tails, small gutless surf, or if you want a looser feel. For 2+1 setups: the larger your side bites, the smaller the center fin can be.
Specifiche che nessun altro rivenditore pubblica.
Moderate-to-heavy. More swept than a pivot fin (~28°), less than a hatchet (~40°).
Industry standard for all single fins — equal shape on both sides for balanced rail-to-rail performance.
Screw + plate. Does NOT fit Futures or FCS boxes. For 2+1 setups, buy the 2+1 Combo pack.
Matte finish. Volan version uses hand-laid volan cloth with raw finish — flex from the body, not just the tip.
Inspired by bluefin tuna caudal fins. High-aspect-ratio design that launched the shortboard revolution.
Volan is a woven fiberglass cloth laid by hand and finished with a resin that cures to a warm amber tint. It flexes differently than solid fiberglass — more spring, more life, more feel through turns. Where solid glass is stiff and direct, volan breathes with the wave.
The hand-laid process means each fin has subtle texture and character. It's heavier, which adds momentum through flat sections. Surfers who ride volan describe it as "warmer" — the fin does more of the work, trimming and holding without demanding constant input.

The most iconic, functional, and versatile single fin available.
The right fin for most mid-lengths, eggs, and any single-fin log where carving matters more than parking on the nose — the template you end up measuring every other single against. It wakes a board up: real drive off the bottom, a long held arc through the turn, then a clean release. Go volan for flex through the whole fin on a heavier board, and go 4C instead if your priority is noseriding and tight pivots.
The Greenough 4A is a single fin designed by George Greenough, made by True Ames, with a full base, long swept rake, tapering tip with moderate flex, and a symmetrical foil. Greenough drew the outline from the tails of tuna and dolphins. It comes in sizes from 6.5" to 10.5": 6.5"-8.5" for shortboard single fins and 2+1 boards, 7.5"-9" for speed shapes and mid-lengths, and 9"-10.5" for single-fin longboards. A volan version is also offered, which carries flex deeper through the body of the fin.
