Sometimes it sounds like you have found that better-more fun board...and therefore have stopped looking for the better.
Do you experiment with unknown, untested elements?

I do have something that will make it way more fun for most riding their board , but so far I can't find anyone to make it .
Thats what i'm working on .
I will say - as someone that designs and makes/manufacturers ”things” as a profession - there is no substitute for direct experience, so history and precedence be damned if economically feasible and you’re smart about it when creating a something.
As to surfboards specifically - everyone is standing on the shoulders of giants when designing and and You’d be A fool to not look n dig backwards to see the hows n whys of what’s already been done.

No, don’t care & was addressing the people in this thread that make boards as a “hobby” …
that being said, I do know pro shapers that could also do well to heed my words
PS: And it never hurts old dogs to circle back and revisit some of there earlier discarded designs -

Well, whatever the best tail design is, diamonds work really well IMHO, got two boards with it and I much prefer them to squash when waves are good. To me they're a great bridge between round and swallow.
Yeah you get the short rail feel without sacrificing width and they do have a bite to them compared to a [squash] tail block of the same width.
Agian... IMHO
