This fin is fuller than normal leading edge, combined with the slender tipped, but full-based template targets smooth rail turns while harnessing maximum power. Usually powering a "hull" type shape or mid-length surfboard, this fin excels in combination with thin rails and vee to flat bottom. It has been noted that this design: feels good at low speed, has heaps of power with the stiffer flex, has proper hold in all phases of a turn, and has a perfectly balanced feel.
Fin designed by Kirk Putnam and Brian Hilbers...the PHD (as seen in the True Ames featured short film "Meridiem Odyssey").

Product Construction
VOLAN
Handmade by the True Ames team in Santa Barbara, CA, the appeal of the fins True Ames offer with Volan Fiberglass Construction goes much deeper than their distinctive coke-bottle-green color and raw finish. The True Ames Volan fins are cut from the highest quality fiberglass and perfectly aligned for optimal flex characteristics. These limited supply fins flex from the body of the fin thereby producing increased speed and projection off the bottom and through turns. The True Ames Volan fins are fine tuned with a precision foil as well as proper flex. Fins made with Volan fiberglass and properly aligned for optimal weave orientation have very high performance flex characteristics with the flex coming more from the body of the fin rather than just at the tip.
