Do you have the old Starboard bamboo hatchet shaped fin or the new dolphin shaped fin? .. How heavy are you?

Are you after better tracking or better stability or better surfing/turning.. and do you have a lot of weed to deal with?

Dolphin shape, 190 lbs, would like better stability but can also have lots-o-kelp to deal with at times.

Hello!

I would either go for a Hybrid Gladiator or a Ninja. (I prefer the Ninja).
