FST is heavier, partically in the boards with the heavy double concaves it seems. The trade off is you get a lot more durability from the construction.
Training sucks but even a little bit makes a big difference.
Check out the surf stronger DVD too. Some basic exercises that are targeted at improving surf techniques.
The Dominator was the start of that design. Fuller template, plenty of volume, low rocker and smooth continuous curve in the outline.
The Spitfire is basically the Dominator but with the rail...
Yeah rail volume would definitely be a really good tweak. I can handle centreline thickness but don't like the rails too thick. It starts getting pretty complicated and expensive to implement from there...
I'm praying the Vanguard gets added to the CBD. Otherwise I'm probably going to have to try and get one made locally with stringerless EPS core, carbon rails and kevlar deck.
I think I print screened mine and uploaded it to photobucket or something.
I've got a 510 Alt in the 28.5l range that I really want to order. Looks fun for smaller, good waves. It's all Vanguard...
