Designed to be paired with a twin template, these Canards are most commonly used as the lead fins for a Twinzer setup. Generally placed just forward of the twins and set outside towards the rail, these fins are versatile and can be used in many different combinations for a variety of shapes and board sizes. These fins feature a flat inside foil and there is no angle in the FCS base.
Placed just forward of and outside the main twins, they break the water tension before it reaches the twins, adding lift and reducing drag — and the more cant you give the canard, the more bite you get through a turn.
Buy these only if your board has canard boxes set ahead of its twin boxes and you want to run a true Twinzer — more hold and drive while keeping the loose, free feel of a twin. If your board is a standard twin without canard boxes, these won't help: run a pure twin like the Hobie Fish or Boomerang Twin instead, or add a small trailer for hold.
The True Ames Canards are small lead fins made in solid fiberglass with FCS-compatible bases and a flat inside foil. They mount just forward of and outboard of a twin set's main fins, near the rail, in dedicated canard boxes, completing a Twinzer layout. The cant built into the box installation tunes the setup, and they are not designed to work as side bites or standalone fins.
The review compares the Twinzer against a plain twin like the Hobie Fish, which gives up some rail hold in steeper sections.
Named as a pure twin to run instead if your board has no canard boxes.
