FAQs

Will this fin fit my surfboard?
Yes, if your board has a standard sliding center fin box. (US/Bahne)

Is a 6" center fin too small for a longboard?
It can work in a 2+1 setup, but traditional longboards usually use larger center fins.

What happens if I use a smaller center fin?
The board will generally feel looser, faster and easier to turn.

What is Volan fiberglass?
Volan is a fiberglass cloth producing a greenish hue, known for its smooth flex response and classic surf feel.

Can this fin be moved in the fin box?
