I don't like the feel of keel fins backside but love how regular twins and quads go! I would try a larger or smaller set of fins before giving up on the board.

Fin placements would help + Dims of boardI have never experienced this with a board but hear it often enough around here to pose the question.
Can someone who's experienced this explain?
When you go frontside, aren't you engaging both toeside and heelside rails and same going backside? So if your board goes frontside, shouldn't it be able to go backside?
What's also interesting is I've never heard the opposite......that a board goes backside, but doesn't go frontside.
This. All 3 of these. It happens to me during BS bottom turns on twins, usually keel fins. Slide out, blow a perfectly good left. Frustrating for sure. Top turns are fine. I don't have this issue on quads.1 . Tail width ( to wide for your weight )
2. Tail rocker ( to low )
3. Fins ( to much rake or to stiff of material)
Seriously...down to where he livesI aspire to spending all my time and money on surfing. Aruka’s got life figured out!
You all are tripping. It's rained like 80 inches since september and I haven't had a decent session since I got back from mex a month ago. If the sun doesn't come out soon I'm gonna lose it.Seriously...down to where he lives

It allowed for better stabs I assumeMy CI Dagger went better backside.
Yeah, but compared to some of the sh!t down here....I wonderYou all are tripping. It's rained like 80 inches since september and I haven't had a decent session since I got back from mex a month ago. If the sun doesn't come out soon I'm gonna lose it.
I have the same issue with a twinzer (MR/80's style twin shape) I have... it's amazingly fast and turns on a dime backside, but I dig rail and slide out on cutbacks going frontside. I figured it was because I my feet land further back on the board when I pop up backside (so my back foot is at the back of the traction pad) as opposed to frontside where my back foot always lands at the very front of the pad.it's funny, I had a twinzer that went better backside than frontside
I have issues with differing foot placements, period. I'm just glad when my feet are even fucking remotely in the right spotDoes anyone else have this issue with differing foot placement depending on which way the pop up?
Same style of rocker on both boards?The boar on the right, I ende dup hating going frontside, but was good on my backside. Frontside I simply could not get the thing going / no speed at all. Backhand went just fine
Go figure... still no idea, but I sold it on
