Powered bottom turns on a thruster surfboard...
After some advice from the surfers on here...

Now i've really dialled in my Slingshot Celeritas, i'm finding that on really powered, hard bottom turns (both front and backside) the tail's sliding out for a second right in that critical moment...

Have i just got to wash off a bit of speed before i make the turn, or will softer/harder fins help?

Tried a quad board and it didn't happen - but i'm sure it was because it was on an unfamiliar board that I wasn't pushing as hard...

Any advice would be appreciated because it's getting really annoying lol...

Here's a pic about a second after it's happened - you can see the gap in the spray where i've slid out & my stance is far from pretty as i'm trying to recover.
