Quiver Shots - Post 'em up!

[tedshred5]

did you do a review of/between these two? Seems like they might have a bit of overlap

Need more sessions with the RT but initial impression is that they do overlap a bit in range. RT more pronounced concaves, so maybe a bit more lift or "sparkiness" at times, whereas P2 feels more settled and more bite especially with swallowtail. I think I will favor the RT when it's smaller.

Had my first surf on my RT.
Paddled same.
Not as drivey almost squirrely.
Still plenty fast just different feeling than P2.
Felt like no push back off the fins.
Had Roberts L in it.
P2 feels drivey and knifey.
If I had to pick between both I'd go P2.

yeah I have really raked/wide base fins in mine, Jordy larges.

overall I'd say probably same range but more unpredictability in the RT which would make me favor the P2 when it's bigger and RT when it's smaller

Yeah i'll give it a run with some AMs.
Thought they were in my truck but didn't wanna run home.
Think I have some CF L sitting around too.

FWIW, I like my RT a lot better with a neutral fin vs raked (tried mine w/ Jordys, DHDs, and settled on L JJFs and know others prefer a pivot fin though I haven't tried.)

Think that will solve some of that unpredictability.

^^ This makes sense to me being marketed as lower rocker than his usually hpsb's.

For me, this formula has been valid over the years, minus a little personal preference.

Low Tail Rocker<<<<<....>>>>>High Tail Rocker
_____Pivot<<<<<<<<Neutral>>>>>>>>Rake_____

Thanks for this - been wondering what fins I should use in my new shortboard. I did the opposite thing and put my most pivoty fins in this

refo you a big seahawks fan?

I was a big fan in 2015 to about 2021 when they had Kam Chancellor, Marshawn Lynch, Richard Sherman, Russell Wilson, Tyler Lockett and several other good players. It seems like they haven't had a good team in a while despite having Pete Carroll (who is a great coach) so i haven't been watching all that much.
