True Ames “Greenough” (Stage 6) 5″ & 5.5″ and 7.25″
The Greenough Stage 6 in sizes 5″ and 5.5″ and 7.25″. George Greenough’s close friends know that the only thing that kept the budding ex-patriot in California was his interest in windsurfing, which spawned the Stage 6. While George found the combination of a “stiff leg” and “active paddle” to generate powerful turns, we also find the bigger sizes to be powerful on the tip. This fin has its roots in George’s windsurfer! He, and others, have lent strong encouragement to bring this design to the surf world. The basic theory is a “stiff leg” and “active paddle” (sometimes called the paddle fin). By putting the working part of the fin deeper in the “clean” water, the feeling is solid yet highly manoeuvrable.
