The side bites are offered in six different sizes, so you can find a set to meet any style of board or any sort of need! However... the 3.7" are the most recommended size for 2+1's.

What people say
The intent is hold without character change: the fin wakes up on rail and otherwise stays out of the center fin's way. It is the size True Ames flags as its most recommended for longboard 2+1 setups.
The safe middle of the side bite range: pair them with a 7 to 7.5 inch cutaway center on a 9-foot board and let them plant the tail through turns a pure single would wash out of. Size down to the 3.25 to keep a mid-length's single-fin glide intact, or up to the 4.0 for steep, overhead surf.
More About This Fin
A pair of True Ames side bite fins in the 3.7 inch size, Futures-compatible solid fiberglass, sold as a pair. The True Ames side bite range runs from 2.6 inches up to 4.35 inches, and 3.7 is the size True Ames flags as its most recommended for longboard 2+1 setups. The template is upright with light rake, designed to pair with a center fin around 7 to 7.5 inches on longboards and performance logs.
