Hi. I've owned a quatro quad ls 75 2012, a quatro quad 80 2015 and a quatro cube 81 2018. The only one which surfs well in my opinion is the quad 80 in spite of having the widest tail of the three. I prefer the goyas, both tris and quad surf looser.

Has someone changed the fins of the cube 81 to turn looser and got it? How? K4 fins? Which model and size?
Thanks

What's wrong with MFC fins? If the stock fins that come with the board are too big for your liking, just try a size smaller.

I think even the older quatro quads are pretty amazing, haven't found anything to complain about.

I rate them amongst the best wave boards ever. I note your idea of looser boards are ones that are not typically known for being really loose - they’d be akin to the Quatro for most folks I think. Its not like you said Pyramid which would of course be.
Thus, have you measured all your setup on the ones u like vs the Quatro? Stance vs fin positions
I find they’re better with the mast base a bit behind centre unless you really need to engage more rail in the bottom turn as they are of course not a full DTL only board. Base to rear a bit improves planing threshold and definitely looseness for me - but as I said I never thought the latter was lacking

Just contact k4 uk direct.An incinerator set will loosen board considerably as they are low area for size.

Qube will most likely work well as a twin also.
