I would think the round pin changes the model a decent bit. I've had a couple waves with softer/chunkier sections where it was not turning as freely as the swallow would've.haha I can't get on your level @waxurDyl ! I can't remember who, but someone here had a 2-board order from XTR - a RP Twinsman and a Lightbender - and it looked perfect to me
edit: some of the issues DLS was bringing up with Matt on the Twinsman pod wouldn't apply to the standard swallow tail.
Don't plan to surf the 6'1 RP below chest-high, really a mini-step for me (at 6' tall) and it held great in the rounder OH waves
