I swapped my TM for a Plasmic with a guy for about an hour in waves that were better suited for the Plasmic and that concave in the back was just too weird feeling for how I drive my boards. It felt like the tail was on a jacuzzi bubble sometimes.YOLO one of those stoke Plasmic EASTs. I’d imagine similar range to Flare and would love a comparison.

This pretty much mimics my feelsThe TM works perfectly with my weight distribution, it's just I can get going more quickly on my Flare, NB2 or Psych Germ in the small stuff. I'm sure the fact those boards have a third fin to push off of helps generating speed at the get-go.
Did you happen to notice what fins were in the plasmic you tried? My first surf on Oeste's plasmic I used the NVS album fins and definitely felt that sensation, in addition to it lacking drive and being stiff. I switched to NVS Knox (more upright, slightly bigger) and all that disappeared and it became super natural to surf as a front foot oriented sarfer.I swapped my TM for a Plasmic with a guy for about an hour in waves that were better suited for the Plasmic and that concave in the back was just too weird feeling for how I drive my boards.

The sensation was similar to what I felt with the Sci Fi I owned for a minute. It's too hard after almost 40 years of surfing to unlearn pumping with more weight on my front foot.
The waves are so short/quick where I surf 95% of the time. The way I drive works and I get up to speed really quickly, but some board designs don't jive with me.

I consider myself front-footed as wellPerhaps those were a bit small for you. I definitely think the plasmic can work for front footed surfers.
How dare you.This pretty much mimics my feels
Elmores FTWdefinitely the same experience for me. tried the Album TA twins on my Plasmic first, but ended up preferring the bigger more upright Elmores
Anyone ever tried the Britt Merrick twins? They're a pretty big fin but I really like 'em in my 6'4 Gibbons egg.Elmores FTW
Damn man. Sorry to hear that but yeah, a ding would have really been icing on the cake.Caught a (first wave of my short lived session) chest high wave this a.m. that was closing out and did my standard pull through the back, but my feet disengaged and my bort got sucked up/over and the rail immediately hit me in the bridge of the nose.
A CT scan (to rule out a septal hematoma) confirmed fractures on both sides of my nose, but there was not even a shatter on my poly Varial build. Sh!tty morning, but stocked I don’t have to deal with a ding repair in addition to my nose approaching Owen Wilson territory.
