    All you have to do to get that drive right through the roundhouse is put in a rakier set (in appropriate size) of rear fins.
    Good luck with your hiatus.

    Has anyone used the Mayhem GMB 5 fin set? Keen to pull the trigger on a set to use on a Potatonator and Spitfire....was keen on the Simons but they dont offer a 5 fin set

    Benny, I have both of those sets..the new GMB 5 Fin (Fluro) and the Simon Anderson Large quad set...I personally liked the Simons in the PN due to the bigger tip on those fins...They just seemed to work better with that board.

    Cool! Just ordered a set of Simons in the red PC, finally tracked a pair down....might get some GMB fins later on. I don't think I'll ever surf the PN as a thruster

    Yea those FCS SA-2 (large Simon quad) fins are great, I noticed that's what Timmy Reyes was ripping in his 5'4 Dominator too... http://vimeo.com/35413195

    When trying to decide on size for these, is it better to be on the upper end of the scale on a M (65-80) or on the lower end on a L (75-90)? I'm 77/78kg and looking at a 5'10 PN.
