    A bigger round tail Alternator maybe? Not really familiar with the concept of a fun gun to be honest??

    A semi-gun perhaps? The FFs also come in a pintail too as a step up.
    Jesus is coming, look busy!
    Moving forward or just spinning faster?

    Here's one definition.

    Designed for those who want a fuller shape that is easy to paddle and maintains performance in demanding surf conditions. Fun guns are great for the long board surfer that is heading for the reefs of the south pacific. This model is the ultimate crossover for the intermediate surfer ready to go to the next level of performance surfing.

    I was thinking maybe a big Alternator and using CBD to get a wider nose. Probably should have put this in the CBD section.

    Put the volume of a 6'10 Addvance in a 7'4 board that is a bit narrower. Keep the volume under the chest and not in the rear. Rounded pin tail. Rocker that is going to suit a steeper/bigger wave.
