my thruster seems faster than a quad
      04/03/12 09:21 AM

I thought that a quad was supposed to be faster than a thruster? The 2 boards I am comparing are a 6'3 JS X4 with stock JS quad fins and a 5'10 Xanadu Gipos with stock glass flex fins, I caught several waves on both this morning and the Xanadu just felt like a rocket ship compared to the JS, which felt more stable.....almost feeling locked in like a step-up might, I dont know if I need to adjust my surfing style for a quad maybe? I have always surfed thrusters.
