A full leading edge flows into a distinctive concaved inside foil, generating immediate acceleration while maintaining control through turns. Its neutral elliptical outline keeps the feel balanced and versatile, allowing the set to adapt across a wide range of boards and conditions. Fast, controlled, and highly responsive, the Feathers Quad is built to unlock speed and versatility without sacrificing precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFORM, FUNCTION \u0026amp; FEEL\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0009\/1720\/9132\/files\/FEATHERS_QUAD.png?v=1780628749\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bold caps\"\u003eForm |\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eUpright, Power Head, Inside Foil\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bold caps\"\u003eFunction |\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSpeed Generating into a Solid Pivot Point\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bold caps\"\u003eFeel |\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ePowerful, Maneuverable, Responsive\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bold caps\"\u003eOverall |\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eVersatile quad fin designed for high speed performance surfing\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-attribute\"\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0009\/1720\/9132\/files\/FEATHERS_QUAD_2.png?v=1780628829\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMATERIALS \u0026amp; FITMENT\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bold caps\"\u003eConstruction |\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSolid Fiberglass\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bold caps\"\u003eFinish |\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRaw - Sanded\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bold caps\"\u003eFitment |\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFutures Compatible, 7° Angle Front, 3° Angle Rear\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bold caps\"\u003eApplication |\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eGrub Screw\\\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-attribute\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-attribute\"\u003eWHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS FIN\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"feature-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEllis Ericson's edge-inspired shapes have a lot of zip and go fast. These fins are fit to complement those characteristics. Although they have a larger surface area, they are also upright, reducing drag while offering an ample-sized pivot point. The power blade head shape is very unique, providing width to push from and generate speed, while freeing up top turns with its high aspect ratio.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThese fins have drive and flow. The inside foil provides lift, and when on rail, the outline offers consistency through the turn. With a higher aspect ratio, you're freed to release the end of a turn, but with the fins still engaged, allowing quick linkage to the next maneuver.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThese fins were designed to complement Ellis' Lite Kite shapes, and in general are ideal for a quad setup with a longer rail line or wider outline. The template pairs well with a board that likes to go fast and may not naturally have a tight turning radius, instead leaning on the fins to provide a pivot point.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHISTORY \u0026amp; ORIGIN\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rte\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"enlarge-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"metafield-multi_line_text_field\"\u003eThe Ellis Ericson Feathers Quad springs from the adventurous design language of Ellis Ericson, a Byron Bay-born surfer and shaper who grew up steeped in the rich lineage of 1970s Australian surfboard craft. Influenced early on by the curves and flow of classic designs — and shaped further by long stints riding and shaping in Indonesia — Ellis combines timeless surfboard aesthetics with a modern performance mindset rooted in speed, feel, and connection to the wave. As his exploration evolved beyond single fins and mid-lengths, the move into quad setups like the Feathers Quad represents a natural extension of his ethos: fuse old-school soul with progressive execution to unlock lively acceleration, drive through turns, and a playful yet precise ride. Central to Ellis' evolution is the lasting influence of George Greenough — whose revolutionary approach to flex, foil, and hydrodynamic efficiency reshaped modern fin design.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"True Ames","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48738645868759,"sku":null,"price":259.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0009\/1720\/9132\/files\/FUT_EE_Quad_Smk_v2_1800x1800_f386ca20-fc71-43fa-823d-94882e56b1c9.png?v=1780629139","url":"https:\/\/realsurf.co.nz\/products\/true-ames-ellis-ericson-feathers-quad-fg-futures-smoke","provider":"Real Surf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
