This board, of all I've ever ridden has me guessing. It feels rather un predictable to a point were i feel it really has different gears (if that makes sense). I find in solid waves it runs well enough especially when it is stepper. but i often feel in smaller waves i really have to work it rather hard. On a single wave i can speed off and slow it down dramatically. Most previous boards have felt more like I'm just driving and along for the ride. This one i feel i need to be constantly changing gears and working at getting it to do what i want. (I know that's a rather bad way of explaining it but its the best i can do)
I have dropped down in fins to loosen it up on turns and I'm now running medium Jordies (way to small for me but the shops all pointed that way) but they have given me the loose feeling and helps with sharp turns, but I'm just now struggling with this bottom turn slide out. When i drop in late, pull straight under the lip, it feels fine, its really i guess more just on the bottom turn sometimes it just slides out flat..Maybe its just me being a kook
SO yes i found stamping on my tail pad makes a massive difference, so do i need to be focusing on driving of the tail only, or more force on rails also, or just try a different fin..? I have been told this model prefers quads, but i wanted to get a better feel of this before i moved on to something else.. The Dominator has had some massive raps on the net and from nearly everyone I've seen riding them, but I'm still well and truly sitting on the fence. Ive had some amazing waves on it, but it still is probably my least fav board

So I've been told to stamp(more weight) my back foot, I agree and will move my tail pad further back, to help with this. I have been told its just more the shape of the board.

It would be good to get some more feedback, even if it is that I'm just a kook..
