The Fin
The Cutaway is one of True Ames’ tried-and-true templates. With its cutout in the trailing edge, this fin is all about maneuverability–making it the perfect accomplice for most any 2+1 setup.
This fin’s design is rooted in high-performance longboarding. Pair the Cutaway with some side bites and you’ll be making snappy turns and quick cutbacks on a whim. This setup is incredibly responsive and will provide a lively feeling in waves of all shapes and sizes. There really is no other fin combination that makes performance longboarding so easy.
- Cutout in trailing edge creates responsiveness and maneuverability
- The most popular sizes for a 2+1 setup are the midrange sizes: 7”, 7.5” and 8”. For more radical fin experimentation, try the smaller sizes.
- Solid fiberglass construction, gloss finish

What people say
Run it as a 2+1 center on a performance longboard with side bites in and you get snappy turns, quick cutbacks and a responsive, lively feel in waves of any size. This fin wants to move.
From True Ames
Built to be the center fin of a 2+1, where it turns snappy and lively while the side bites supply rail hold. Smaller sizes free it up even further for radical experimentation.
Our take
Put it in the center box of a performance longboard with 3.7-inch or smaller side bites when you want to turn the board hard instead of just trim and noseride. If you want a drivier, more drawn-out mid-length center the CI Mid is the better pick, and a true noserider calls for the Dewey Weber Hatchet instead.
