I agree with the above.l got a RRd fireball 2003 . there's about 3mm of tail rocker aft of fin box.this board flys once it gets 18 knots & beyond.l strapped a Goldwing Tuttle fin in it got 35 knots out of it . sometimes you need the factory tail rocker for the board to release in chop.fins can make a huge difference in the performance of a board
