The Greenough 4-A Single Fin is the most iconic, functional and versatile single fin available, because it works extremely well on just about every type of surfboard. The 4-A has been True Ames' bread and butter for over 40 years now, and it is still the most popular single fin design there is due to it's all-around and well-balanced performance. Our Volan fins are fine-tuned with precision foils as well as proper flex. The Volan panels are meticulously hand-laid and templated ensuring optimal weave orientation and superior strength, with flex coming more from the body rather than just the tip. This enhances speed and projection off the bottom and through turns, making our Volan fins a pinnacle of the highest performance flex characteristics.

Form | Medium profile, full base coupled with a tapering & moderately flexible tip

Function | A fin that will hold when you need it to and release when the time is right

Feel | Neutral-positive, perfectly-balanced, a fin that will drive off the bottom, and have an acute responsiveness through arcing turns

Overall | Versatile - designed for all board shapes and surf conditions

Designer Name: George Hamilton Perkins Greenough
Designer Origin: Santa Barbara, California
Designer Bio: Greenough treated the fin as a true hydrodynamic foil—pursuing high-aspect, lower-drag outlines and intentional flex to reduce drag and increase control through powerful arcs. His "high aspect ratio" and signature flex-fin concepts helped unlock faster, more radical surfing lines and were central influences on the 1960s–70s performance/shortboard progression.
