Not enough fins in my opinion.



Have you tried some making the center fin winged along with some quadrupal concaves, I reckon you could really cut some wicked old school cut backs, off the lips and rip some mean floaters using that setup.

How am I going with the language guys - am I getting there?

Without a doubt a 2 + 1 setup although I think for sub 9ft boards a standard fcs thruster setup with largish fins would be the go. My 9'0 has a very wide fish tail so I run it with an 8inch and Am2 sides and this seems to give me heaps of drive/bite and stability. I have ridden the same board set up as a quad and my first impression is that it was less stable and tended to yaw more - although I did not surf the quad, but I reckon it would be a bit loose for my liking.
