The True Ames John Simon Single Tab Quad Fin Set (John’s Quad Type I) feature relatively upright templates with narrow and blunted tips which are intended to create the ability for tighter arcs in curvy type waves.
“They really help make my longer quad fin eggs, which tend to be in the 7’+ range, surf like they are shorter boards because of the tight turning radius and sensitivity they promote. They are also very functional on shorter, flatter, and wider tailed boards because they provide a good balance of punchy flickiness in the lip but also a lot of control in pockety waves. Smaller, tighter, and compact / bowly waves is what I had them in mind for.” -John Simon
There you have it… straight from the horse’s mouth. Give ’em a try and see if you can’t tighten up some of your turns!
