Pigs: Do they work?


I've been getting interested in Pigs. They seem to be where the whole Hull thing took off from. With Greg Liddle, under the radar after the short board thing started. Narrow nose, soft concave up front, rolled bottom to V through the tail. Pinched 50/50 rails. I thinks they would be a pretty fun board to ride. Snappy off the tail, light swing weight, ridiculous glide and you could get up on the nose in the steep sections. Such a nice plane shape too. Anyone ridden one? Seems to be two schools of thought about which fin suits them. Either a Greenough or a D fin. I'd get one with a box and try out both.
