6.5” is all you get
In 1970, across the fertile planes of Oxnard, the Cambell brothers invented the unprecedented Bonzer design, and this rear-loading fin, available now in a Bamboo veneer super lite version, was its centerpiece. Make sure to also get the runners that complete the Bonzer configuration.

Very stoked to see the new Bonzer Style fins (especially the hex center and side fins)! It would be even better if you could offer the side fins (Bonzer Runners) in FCS compatable versions and the hex center fin in the 7″ length.
Thanks for expanding the Bonzer options!

As of right now we don’t offer the Bonzers in FCS compatible. We are working on hexcore 6′ and 7″ center fin so stay tuned. Thanks!

Hi Guys,
maybe you guys could help me find the right selection out of your amazing range of fins. Want to surf a 6’4” bear wombat eggy kind of shape as a thruster set-up (it has a fin box in the middle and fcs plugs for the side fins). Looking for tuning the board for tighter turns.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Cheers,
fab

Hey Fabian, Thanks for coming to True Ames for fin advice. Your best bet to make that board high performance and good for tighter turns you want go with all 3 fins the same height in the 4.5″ to 4.75″ size. We offer”the smallbox fin in a variety of sizes. Then match up your FCS compatible side fins to the same size as your center fin… Another option is more like a mini longboard setup with a 6.5″ to 7″ center fin and smaller side fins in the 3.6o” range. Hope this helps!

Hi !
just wondering if you have any fcs compatible fins that are great for small people? like 50kg?
cheers and love your bamboo fins!

Your best bet is the Timmy Patterson Small FCS compatible fin This fin is a smaller version of a good all around fin, just a bit smaller. good luck

looking for new fins for a 9’4″ stewart pin-pro. Current set up is a glass, standard sweep center fin with cheap future side bites. I was looking to replace with either a long thruster set up as that fits my style (using the longboard maninly for paddling, tend toward late take-offs and down the line speed), 4 3/4 or just updating the side bites with glass. Other option was to also replace center fin with your bamboo 6.5″, but that was sex appeal, not rational thought. Next question, do you or one of the retail shops in town (SB) let you demo your fins? Thanks for your help
