Nice, I has waves like this today i had soooo much fun and only fell off twice while being cocky.

But for the life of me i cant get this banana to turn, while on the wave and wow it yaw's badly
If i paddle for the wave even if i just do licks im either going left or right

Could be me but i think i would like something faster but just as stable as the mana
I think i describe the 9'3 subvector

I do have a photo of todays surf so will bang it up when i can

It'll come mate. Trust me, the bananas turn - you just gotta get back on the board and it will turn as hard as you want. You may also need to take smaller paddle strokes in the surf which will cause less yaw but still get you moving ok. Check your centre fin as well and set it up mid-box or just behing midway.

hey border paul, way to early to be making any call i'm afraid- you just need to learn. part of that is to slid your centre fin around and change the sides around- have a play. four things that need to be right with a fin setup. first is the boards surfing performance, second is stability, third is how it paddles and last how it handles- kick turn etc . the thing is the best surfing setup might result in the other elements being lousy. so you have to juggle them all to find the best all round setup you can obtain for yourself
cheers

I have the centre in the centre I may try it al the way back as this will keep it a little more straight but i think im just taking to much paddle stroke anyway

More time and more hours.

I see that demo day i was looking for is in QLD Anyone tell me where when etc
I think i will be ready for a new stick by then, And i might as well have a few days in the sun and replace the board at the same time

Fullly mate. Hope it stays small all week - been getting 30 odd waves per sesh and only the odd smack in the shorey, but overall pretty soft and gentle with just a tad of challenge - just ideal conditons for a sup.
