Classic Drive. Smooth Carving. Timeless 4A Control.

The benchmark longboard template — balanced, dependable, and built for real-world Australian conditions.
Limited production Volan glass layup.

✔ Smooth projection
✔ Reliable hold
✔ Universal longboard box compatible
✔ Fast Australian shipping

If there is one longboard fin template that has stood the test of time, it’s the International 4A.

The 8" version delivers that perfect middle ground between pivot and drive. It doesn’t feel stiff. It doesn’t feel twitchy. It simply settles your board and lets you surf.

With its moderate rake and full base, the 4A generates clean projection down the line while maintaining smooth, flowing arcs through turns. The refined tip foil gives controlled release without sliding unpredictably.

Constructed in traditional Volan Pro Glass, this fin provides a more organic flex pattern than modern composite fins — loading through turns and rebounding with control rather than snap.

If you want classic longboard flow without sacrificing responsiveness, this is the template.

Designed for Australian conditions.

FAQS

What board size suits an 8 inch longboard fin?

An 8" center fin works best in 8’6”–9’6” performance longboards, mid-lengths, or 2+1 setups.

Is the International 4A good for noseriding?

It provides solid hold, but if maximum nose time is your priority, a 9" or larger logger-style fin may be better.

Volan glass delivers smoother flex, stronger rebound, and more controlled energy release compared to standard fiberglass or composite fins.

Yes. It fits any standard center sliding longboard fin box.
