I've been told the like or unlike of quads is more likely due to front foot surfing rather than back?? Not sure about that but I do like quads more than the thruster set up and hardly ride as thruster anymore. I just find I can hold my lines better and have more control. Keep in mind I am a big guy at 225lbs and not needing or wanting to turn on a dime and smash lips etc... like when I was younger. If you took riding quads away from me forever I would be just as happy riding thrusters though -- I just prefer 4 vs 3 but I still have my boards made as a 5 fin set up.
