Thinking of buying a second board

My proof 151 board slips around quite a bit in the chop due to (I am assuming) the round rail and doesn't flex at all. Its also kinda long and heavy, kinda regret buying a "beginner" board. I was thinking of the recoil 133, seems like it would be okay. Just not sure if I should sell my proof 151 or keep it for backup/ coastal adventures (round rail resembles surfboard rail I guess). Anybody got any advice on foot straps/pads, All I've tried is the LF luxury things, they are nice but I can't seem to get a lot of grip on em when the board wants to slide off my feet (maybe thats what the ankle straps are for...)

that is a good deal. Spend the money at get a custom or "upper tier" board. You'll thank yourself every time you go out.
