I'd have 0 issues with a Sub Driver in those waves; that'd be one of the 5 best days of the year in Florida for shortboard surfing. I've tried tons of flatter-tail rockered alts like the 1st gen RNFQ, Shark Quad, SD2, PJ and PJHP etc small very onshore Florida, none close to as good as the Baby Buggy if there's moguls on the face (none really seen in video; faces look fine).
The one alt I've tried worth a doo doo in that is the OG Rocket.
You see here this guy, he is bogging because there's a piece of chop RIGHT in the way. I don't know how you deal with this on a flat tail rocker board, and the instant there's not moguls to hop over, I jump right on them. If I tried to do a real Sub Driver bottom turn I'd be in the same bog boat as him. I don't understand how you deal with this other than stay mid-face and light/quick, hop over it, and then quickly pump from mid-face to crest if the next section doesn't have a mogul, and not sure how a flatter rocker does that better than a flippy one.
Is there a very steep/dredging really tight pockets point at which you like more tail rocker, or no?
