    yeah agreed 100% with Prj here! The dominator is ideally is meant to be ridden more like a shortboard and i think free feeling fins are the way to go.

    Wasn't blown away this evening. There wasn't anything awkward or weird about them and they felt nice and loose and free but I really wasn't finding any drive from them. Might have just been that the waves were super crappy but I expected them to excel in those conditions. I'll see how they go in slightly better conditions and keep trying them because there didn't seem to be any draw backs performance wise.
    It's possible I was just over thinking things and screwing myself. That's why I like those really neutral templates like the DL. I don't think about the fin and it just does it's thing.
