I am planning on putting in some upright side fins in for another crack at it today. Since it requires FCS 1 fins I don't have a lot of options in my fin quiver but will try running the rear quads out of a "controller" set and I also have a set of GX-Qs if I want to try smaller again. Don't have an 8" Skip template on hand so may have to run with the Alkali 7.25" classic I have. May chase up this one to try. https://alkalifins.com/shop/fins/dvs-single/ Or this in a 9" https://surfzero.com.au/collections/9-fins/products/scarfini-9-eco-longboard-fin but 8" ones are also available. Figure it hasn't got enough fin height for the tail width but the fin pictured that I ran first go out has its tab at the rear so limits how far back in the box I can push it. The Alkali has its tab at the front so can be pushed all the way to the back of the box. However since it's a "Hull-ish" board as opposed to a more pure iteration I am spitballing with fins and combinations since I don't have experience with either. I also have to be careful as I have a bad lower back which has had me riding twins and quads for many, many years since riding thruster fin configurations tend to give me a sore lower back which I attribute to the anchoring characteristic of the thruster's rear fin which then exerts torque on my lower back in turns. This is just what I have found and is in no way an observation of anyone else's lower back situations so I am cautious to have too much centre fin area controlling the board.

Off topic and I might have missed it but tell us more about the cork rail board above..........
