Ben8256, for FCS check out the SA-1 or SA-2 thruster and quad sets. I heard TC Aqualine is good too.

Got some Stretch fins RTM off of ebay that I am going to try. I heard they go really amazing in the Spitfire, if they are too loose I got some Rusty fins I can try. Looking for a little more snapiness out of my turns so hopefully I can have some fun. This board is Rapidfire, which does not bother me, I have an FST ELF so it will be good to mix it up.

Surfed my spitty for 3+ hours yesterday. It was perfect for the conditions; full and weak 2-3'. I was sitting out past a couple of longboarders and picking up the sets. It was one of those days where the extra volume made all the difference, so many just weren't getting onto the waves. I made a pig of myself! I had the JK in the car but never got it out. Surfed the JK today (Monday) and was similar but far less guys and I have to say while it went fine for the weekend crowd the extra volume in the spit really helps keep the wave count up - so long as it doesn't start to barrel on take off.
Jesus is coming, look busy!
Moving forward or just spinning faster?

Slowman, sounds like you had a blast yesterday. I tried to surf my new Alternator last night. It was windy, cold and choppy some of my favorite conditions.

hwork50, what fins have you tried in your Spit? Got a 6'0 coming and looking for a good large sized thruster set
Well, I bought a 5'10" RF and will be trading my buddy for his 6'0" so I got to wait a couple weeks before I get it. I will be running Future Stretch quad fins as I just picked up a set on ebay and am pretty amped to try it out. If it goes anywhere as good as my HF I will be super stoked!!
